1 Christ is risen, tell the story,
Shout the tidings far and wide!
He who left His home in glory,
And for us was crucified.
Make it plain that all may read,
Christ the Lord has ris’n indeed;
Make it plain that all may read,
Christ the Lord has ris’n indeed.

2 Christ is risen in the morning
Of that bright and happy day;
His disciples, at the dawning,
Found the stone was rolled away.
From the tomb in haste they speed,
Saying "Christ is ris’n indeed";
From the tomb in haste they speed,
Saying "Christ is ris’n indeed."

3 Christ is risen, tell the story:
He who lived in Galilee
Has ascended, and in glory
Intercedes for you and me.
Glorious tidings which we read,
Christ the Lord is ris’n indeed.
Glorious tidings which we read,
Christ the Lord is ris’n indeed.

4 Christ is risen, lift your voices!
Sound the tidings all abroad
While the host of Heav’n rejoices,
O’er the risen Son of God.
Let all earth the message heed:
Christ the Lord is ris’n indeed;
Let all earth the message heed:
Christ the Lord is ris’n indeed.
