R. Jesus is alive, alleluia !
Jesus saved us from death, alleluia !
If you believe in Him you’ll have life,
Eternal life !
1. If He is not risen from the dead,
In vain would be our faith.
But He is risen, we proclaim,
Jesus Christ is alive !
2. Now the light has overcome the night,
All the dead now rejoice.
For Christ destroyed the pow’r of death,
Jesus Christ is our hope.
3. By our sin we were all doomed to die,
Jesus brought us to life.
O Death, where is your victory ?
Death, o where is your sting ?
