The Lord is ris'n; and death's dark judgment flood

William Paton MacKay (1839-1885)

4 Verses Resurrection Celebration Victory Over Death Redemption & Salvation

Verse 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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!"
