1 Rise, O church, and lift your voices,
Christ has conquered death and hell.
Sing as all the earth rejoices;
resurrection anthems swell.
Come and worship, come and worship,
worship Christ, the risen King!

2 See the tomb where death had laid him,
empty now, its mouth declares:
""Death and I could not contain him,
for the throne of life he shares.""
Come and worship, come and worship,
worship Christ, the risen King!

3 Hear the earth protest and tremble,
see the stone removed with power;
all hell's minions may assemble,
but cannot withstand his hour.
He has conquered, he has conquered,
Christ the Lord, the risen King!

4 Doubt may lift its head to murmur,
scoffers mock and sinners jeer,
but the truth proclaims a wonder
thoughtful hearts receive with cheer.
He is risen, he is risen,
now receive the risen King!

5 We acclaim your life, O Jesus,
now we sing your victory;
sin or hell may seek to seize us,
but your conquest keeps us free.
Stand in triumph, stand in triumph,
worship Christ, the risen King!
