{Verse 1}
B E/B B
Early morning, break of dawn,
F#
Stumbling to the tomb,
B E/B B
Standing awestruck, wond'ring who
F#
Rolled away the stone.
E B/D# F# E
And as the sun came up, amazed, they looked inside.
B/D# F# E
And saw an angel clothed in light,
G#m7 F# E2
"Don't be afraid, He is alive!"
{Chorus}
B F#/B F#7/B B G#m7 E2 F#
He is ri - sen, hallelujah, hallelujah.
B F#/B F#7/B B G#m7 F#
Christ is ri - sen, let the whole world sing.
E B/D# E B/D# E B/D# F# B E
1. Christ is ri - sen, Christ is ri - sen from the dead.
E B/D# E B/D# E B/D# F# B G#m7
2. Christ is risen, Christ is ri - sen from the dead.
{Coda}
E B/D# E B/D# E B/D# E
Christ is ri - sen, Christ is ri - sen,
B/D# E B/D# F# B
Christ is ri - sen from the dead.
E B5
Christ is risen, He is risen.
{Verse 2}
B E/B B
Sing, with all creation, sing,
F#
Of a world made new.
B E/B B
In His life we too may live,
F#
Bursting from the tomb.
E B/D# F# E
And looking up we see our King enthroned on high;
B/D# F# E
His wounds of love now glorified,
G#m7 F# E2
Rejoice, for soon He'll burst the skies.
