1
Proclaim the tidings near and far, 
go tell the blessed story; 
the grave has given up its dead - 
the Lord of life and glory. 

                                Refrain:
                                Sing glory, glory, glory hallelujah! 
                                Sing glory, glory, glory hallelujah! 

2
The Lord is risen! O rejoice, 
the joyful chorus swelling, 
and sing glad songs with heart and voice, 
the wondrous story telling.    (refrain) 

3
The Lord is risen! O rejoice, 
the God of life has spoken. 
Forevermore through Christ's dear name 
the power of death is broken.    (refrain)
