The Lord is risen indeed!
Then justice asks no more;
Mercy and truth are now agreed,
Which stood opposed before.
Then justice asks no more;
Mercy and truth are now agreed,
Which stood opposed before.
The Lord is risen indeed!
Then all His works performed;
The captive Surety now is freed,
And death, our foe, disarmed.
The Lord is risen indeed!
He lives to die no more;
He lives, His people’s cause to plead,
Whose curse and shame He bore.
The Lord is risen indeed!
And hell has lost its prey;
And with Him all the ransomed seed
Shall reign in endless day.
