<p>Christ the Lord is risen today;<br>
Christians, haste your vows to pay;<br>
Offer ye your praises meet<br>
At the Paschal Victim&#8217;s feet.<br>
For the sheep the Lamb hath bled,<br>
Sinless in the sinner&#8217;s stead;<br>
&#8220;Christ is risen,&#8221; today we cry;<br>
Now He lives no more to die.</p>
<p>Christ, the Victim undefiled,<br>
Man to God hath reconciled;<br>
Whilst in strange and awful strife<br>
Met together Death and Life:<br>
Christians, on this happy day<br>
Haste with joy your vows to pay;<br>
&#8220;Christ is risen,&#8221; today we cry;<br>
Now He lives no more to die.</p>
<p>Christ, Who once for sinners bled,<br>
Now the first born from the dead,<br>
Throned in endless might and power,<br>
Lives and reigns forevermore.<br>
Hail, eternal Hope on high!<br>
Hail, Thou King of victory!<br>
Hail, Thou Prince of life adored!<br>
Help and save us, gracious Lord.</p>
