Risen Indeed!

He is risen indeed, I know that it’s true
I’ve met with the risen Lord, have you?
He’s shown me the scars in His nail torn hands
And yet now at the right hand of God He stands
In Glorious splendour, in beauty arrayed
The victory is His, the price has been paid.

He is risen indeed, the tomb’s empty and bare
The discarded grave clothes are all that are there
For death’s power is broken, it’s strongholds torn down
Jesus is living, with majesty crowned.
His rule is unending, His might undiminished
The curtain was torn, Jesus cried, “It is finished”

He is risen indeed, our glorious Lord
Ascended to heaven, by angels adored
The one mediator, He opened the door
For us to know God, He redeems, He restores.
From sin we’re delivered, liberated, set free
Come let us declare, “He is risen Indeed”
