94. The Lord Is Risen Indeed

S.M.
by T. Kelly
1
The Lord is risen indeed,
 
And all His work performed!
 
The captive Surety now is freed,
 
And death, our foe, disarmed.
“And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.” (1 Corinthians 15:28)
2
The Lord is risen indeed:
 
He lives — to die no more;
 
He lives — His people’s cause to plead,
 
Whose curse and shame He bore.
“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2)
3
The Lord is risen indeed:
 
And death has lost its prey:
 
And with Him all the ransomed seed
 
Shall reign in endless day.
“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.” (Hebrews 2:14)
“Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” (1 Timothy 2:6)
“And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.” (Revelation 22:5)
