Jesus Christ is risen today (Easter Hymn)

Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia!
our triumphant holy day, Alleluia!
who did once, upon the cross, Alleluia!
suffer to redeem our loss, Alleluia!
Hymns of praise then let us sing, Alleluia!
unto Christ, our heavenly King, Alleluia!
who endured the cross and grave, Alleluia!
sinners to redeem and save, Alleluia!
But the pains which he endured, Alleluia!
our salvation have procured, Alleluia!
now above the sky he’s King, Alleluia!
where the angels ever sing, Alleluia!
Sing we to our God above, Alleluia!
praise eternal as his love, Alleluia!
praise him, all ye heavenly host, Alleluia!
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Alleluia!
Words: 14th century Latin, Charles Wesley
Music: Easter Hymn, improvised introduction/accompaniment and descant by Robert McCormick

Only the fools say there is no God. This is the proof that there is he exists everywhere and in each of us if we allow him in.

Great congregational singing. Glad the choir and director encourage that because it sounds great.

Love this. Great choir. I plan to ask my organist about joining the choir that I love that ministry.

As a Protestant church, it's sad to see the empty meaning and essence of the procession and the incense.

A triumph of organ playing, stately processionals and choral descants. Like the resurrected Saints entering heaven.
