Jesus, the Lord, is risen
Triumphant o'er the grave;
For us he burst the prison,
Almighty now to save:
Captivity is captive led,
Since Jesus liveth that was dead.


Who to our charge shall lay
Iniquity or guilt ?
Our sin is done away
Since Jesus' blood was spilt.
Captivity, etc.

Who now accuseth them
Whom God hath justified ?
Or who shall those condemn
For whom the Surety died ?
Captivity, etc.

Christ hath the ransom paid,
The wondrous work is done;
On Him our help is laid,
The victory is won.
Captivity, etc
