MHB 222 – OUR Lord is risen from the dead!

Methodist-Hymns-222

1:  OUR Lord is risen from the dead!

Our Jesus is gone up on high!

The powers of hell are captive led,

Dragged to the portals of the sky.\n Hallelujah!

2:  There His triumphal chariot waits,\nAnd angels chant the solemn lay:\nLift up your heads, ye heavenly gates;
Ye everlasting doors, give way
Hallelujah!

3:  Loose all your bars of massy light,\nAnd wide unfold the ethereal scene:\nHe claims these mansions as His right;\nReceive the King of glory in!\n Hallelujah!

4:  Who is this King of Glory? Who?
The Lord that all our foes o’ercame,
The world, sin, death, and hell o’erthrew;
And Jesus is the conqueror’s name.
Hallelujah!

5:  Lo! His triumphal chariot waits,
And angels chant the solemn lay:
Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates;
Ye everlasting doors, give way!
Hallelujah!

6:  Who is this King of Glory? Who?
The Lord, of glorious power possessed;
The King of saints, and angels too,
God over all, for ever blest!
Hallelujah.
