Classic Poem

FOR EASTER DAY .

C HRIST is arisen
From Death's opened prison:
Be merry and sing, O Israel,
C HRIST hath conquered Death and Hell.
Alleluia.

Were He not our Saviour,
We all were lost for ever:
Now that He is risen on high,
Lo! triumph resounds through earth and sky.
Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia.
Be merry and sing, O Israel,
C HRIST hath conquered Death and Hell.
Alleluia.
