I had hoped to finish this rewrite of Christ the Lord Is Risen Today a couple of months ago, but life had other plans, so here it is, newly arranged with a fresh chorus, and my prayer is that it’s something the church will truly love to sing.
LISTEN HERE!
Christ The Lord Is Risen Today
Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!
Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise, Alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia!
Risen Savior, reigning Lord
Death is crushed, the grave ignored
It is finished, victory won
Hallelujah, Praise Christ the Son
Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Once he died our souls to save, Alleluia!
Where's thy victory, boasting grave? Alleluia!
Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!
Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!
Made like him, like him we rise, Alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!
Risen Savior, reigning Lord
Death is crushed, the grave ignored
It is finished, victory won
Hallelujah, Praise Christ the Son
Hail the Lord of earth and heaven, Alleluia!
Praise to thee by both be given, Alleluia!
Thee we greet triumphant now, Alleluia!
Hail the Resurrection, thou, Alleluia!
Risen Savior, reigning Lord
Death is crushed, the grave ignored
It is finished, victory won
Hallelujah, Praise Christ the Son Words: Charles Wesley Music: Shane Martin Add'l chorus: Shane Martin
