150 Christ the Lord Is Risen Today; Alleluia

1 Christ the Lord is ris'n today; Alleluia! Christians, hasten on your way; Alleluia! See the place where he was laid; Alleluia! Praise him for the ransom paid. Alleluia! 2 For the sheep the Lamb has bled, Alleluia! Sinless in the sinner's stead. Alleluia! "Christ is ris'n," today we cry; Alleluia! Now he lives, no more to die. Alleluia! 3 Christ, the victim undefiled, Alleluia! God and sinners reconciled. Alleluia! While in strange and awesome strife Alleluia! Met together death and life. Alleluia! 4 Christ, who once for sinners bled, Alleluia! Now the firstborn from the dead, Alleluia! Throned in endless might and pow'r, Alleluia! Lives and reigns forevermore. Alleluia!
