(one verse introduction)

Love's redeeming work is done,
fought the fight, the battle won.
death in vain forbids him rise;
Christ has opened paradise.

Lives again our glorious King;
where, O death, is now thy sting?
Once he died our souls to save,
where thy victory, O grave?

Soar we now where Chirst has led,
following our esalted Head;
made like hi, like him we rise,
ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
