A triumphant Easter hymn by Irish hymn writer Thomas Kelly, written in 1802, celebrating the resurrection of Christ and its implications for justice, mercy, and the defeat of death.

Verse 1

The Lord is risen indeed!
Then justice asks no more;
Mercy and truth are now agreed,
Which stood opposed before.

Verse 2

The Lord is risen indeed!
Then all His works performed;
The captive Surety now is freed,
And death, our foe, disarmed.

Verse 3

The Lord is risen indeed!
He lives to die no more;
He lives, His people's cause to plead,
Whose curse and shame He bore.

Verse 4

The Lord is risen indeed!
And hell has lost its prey;
And with Him all the ransomed seed
Shall reign in endless day.
