Psalms_24-1: A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein

The Lord is risen indeed.

Now is his work performed;

Now is the mighty captive freed,

And deaths strong castle stormed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‘The Lord is risen indeed.’

The grave has lost his prey;

With Him is risen the ransomed

seed;

To reign in endless day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ‘The Lord is risen indeed.’

He lives, to die no more;

He lives, the sinner’s cause to plead,

Whose curse and shame he

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ‘The Lord is risen indeed.’

Attending angels hear

Up to the courts of heaven with

speed

The joyful tidings bear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, angels, tune your lyres,

And strike each cheerful chord:
