He Has Arisen!

Now after he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene. . . She went out and told those who had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping. Mark 1:9,10

Christians, dismiss your fear;

let hope and joy succeed;

the joyful news with gladness hear:

"The Lord is ris'n indeed!"

The promise is fullfilled

In Christ our only head;

now justice, mercy, reconciled,

he lives who once was dead.
