Let no one caught in sin re main in side the lie of in ward shame.

We fix our eyes up on the cross, and run to Him who showed great love and bled

Christ is (G)ris en from the dead, tram pling o ver death by death.

Come a (C)wake, come a wake, come and (Em)rise up from the (D)grave.

Christ is (G)ris en from the dead; we are one with Him a gain.

Come a (C)wake, come a wake, come and (Em)rise up from the (D)grave.

Be neath the weight of all our sin, You bowed to none but heav en’s will.

No scheme of hell, no scof fer’s crown, no bur den great can hold You down.

In strength

You

For ev er let Your (G)church pro
