Hymns to Sing During Easter Besides “Christ the Lord Is Risen Today!”

He Lives (ACKLEY)
Alfred H. Ackley, 1933

I serve a risen Savior,
He’s in the world today.
(My Baptist predecessors would come up out of the grave and get me if I didn’t include this one.)

Up from the Grave He Arose (CHRIST AROSE)
Robert Lowry, 1874

Up from the grave he arose,
[Up from the gravy a rose]
With a mighty triumph o’er his foes;
He arose a victor from the dark domain,
And he lives forever, with his saints to reign.
(And this one…)

Because He Lives (RESURRECTION)
William J. Gaither, Gloria Gaither, 1971

Because he lives, I can face tomorrow.
(And this one. I strongly recommend omitting stanza 2.)
