1. The Lord is ris'n; and death's dark judgment flood Is passed, in Him who bought us with His blood. The Lord is ris'n: we stand beyond the doom Of all our sin, through Jesus' empty tomb. 2. The Lord is ris'n: with Him we also rose, And in His grave see vanquished all our foes. The Lord is ris'n: beyond the judgment land, In Him, in resurrection-life we stand. 3. The Lord is ris'n: and now redeemed to God, We tread the desert which His feet have trod. The Lord is ris'n: the sanctu'ry's our place, Where now we dwell before the Father's face. 4. The Lord is ris'n: the Lord is gone before. We long to see Him, and to sin no more. The Lord is ris'n: our triumph-shout shall be, “Thou hast prevailed! Thy people, Lord, are free!”
