Alleluia, Christ is Risen!

Stake Conference on this beautiful Easter morn was truly glorious. I wish I could just transfer everything we heard straight into your heads, but since I can't I'll leave it to those much more capable than I.

He is risen! He is risen!

Tell it out with joyful voice.

He has burst his three days’ prison;

Let the whole wide earth rejoice.

Death is conquered; man is free.

Christ has won the victory.

Come with high and holy hymning;

Chant our Lord’s triumphant lay.

Not one darksome cloud is dimming

Yonder glorious morning ray,

Breaking o’er the purple east,

Symbol of our Easter feast.

He is risen! He is risen!

He hath opened heaven’s gate.

We are free from sin’s dark prison,

Risen to a holier state.

And a brighter Easter beam

On our longing eyes shall stream.

Christ the Lord is ris’n today,

Alleluia!

Sons of men and angels say,

Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high,

Alleluia!

Sing, ye heav’ns, and earth reply,

Alleluia!

Love’s redeeming work is done,

Alleluia!

Fought the fight, the vict’ry won,

Alleluia!

Jesus’ agony is o’er,

Alleluia!

Darkness veils the earth no more,

Alleluia!

Lives again our glorious King,

Alleluia!

Where, O death, is now thy sting?

Alleluia!

Once he died our souls to save,

Alleluia!

Where thy victory, O grave?

Alleluia!

Happy Easter.
