The Lord is risen: the Red Sea’s judgment
flood
Is passed in Him, who bought us with His
blood;
The Lord is risen: we stand beyond the
doom
Of all our sin, through Jesus’ empty tomb.
The Lord is risen: redeemed now to God,
We tread the desert which His feet have
trod;
The Lord is risen: the sanctuary’s our place,
Where now we dwell before the Father’s
face.
The Lord is risen: the Lord is gone before;
We long to see Him and to sin no more;
The Lord is risen: our triumph-shout shall
be,
“Thou hast prevailed! Thy people, Lord, are
free!”
W. P. Mackay
