A Mighty Victor

Representative Text

1 A Victor, mighty Victor,
The Lord of heav’n arose,
From death’s enduring prison,
Triumphant o’er his foes;
He rose to life and glory,
That he might banish fear
From ev’ry heart that, loving,
Draws to his presence near.

Refrain:
A Victor, mighty Victor,
Our Lord arose this day,
That he might lead us onward,
Within his blessed way.

2 A Victor, mighty Victor,
Christ rose that Easter Day;
‘Twas all for us he suffered,
That we might learn his way;
He rose to fill with gladness
Each aching, sinful heart,
He rose to comfort sorrow,
To bid despair depart. [Refrain]

3 A Victor, mighty Victor,
The Lord of heav’n arose,
That we, too, might be risen
Triumphant o’er earth’s woes;
So let us join in singing
Our praise to Christ, who love
Prepares for us a dwelling
With him in heav’n above. [Refrain]
