Note.—A higher setting of this tune will be found in the Appendix.

Lyra Davidica (1706), and the Supplement (1816).
Based partly on Surrexit Christus hodie.
c. 14th cent.

JESUS Christ is risen to-day, Alleluya!
Our triumphant holy day, Alleluya!
Who did once, upon the Cross. Alleluya!
Suffer to redeem our loss. Alleluya!
