Angel Voices Sweetly Singing by Hermann Kotzschmar — Lyrics
1. Christ is risen, all triumphant,
He has risen from the tomb!
Angel voices sweetly singing
Banish all our earthly gloom:
Join the glad song, all ye nations
Of his great redeeming love,
Calvary alone could save us
Christ is smiling from above.
2. He has risen, He is pleading
For each poor and struggling one;
Blessed day we hail that dawning,
Hope shall gild thy rising sun!
While on earth, reviled, rejected,
Gain he counted but as loss,
Hallelujah! he has risen,
And we bow before the cross.
