Lyics

THE happy morn is come:

Triumphant o'er the grave,

The Saviour leaves the tomb,

Omnipotent to save:

Captivity is captive led;

For Jesus liveth, that was dead.



Who now accuseth them,

For whom their ransom died?

Who now shall those condemn

Whom God hath justified?

Captivity is captive led;

For Jesus liveth, that was dead.



Christ hath the ransom paid;

The glorious work is done;

On him our help is laid,

By him our vict'ry won:

Captivity is captive led;

For Jesus liveth, that was dead.
