He is alive He is alive
Jesus has conquer’d death
Now He’s ascended in glory
We bring our praise
Bring our love our adoration
Jesus is King Lord over all
By the working of the strength of His might
In accordance with His great surpassing pow’r
He has rais’d Jesus Christ from the dead
And seated Him at God’s right hand
Far above all authority and rule
Greater than all dominion and power
Jesus Christ is the Head of the church
And His throne stands for evermore
With all things crushed beneath His feet
Jesus reigns in total victory
We bow to Him as the Head of the church
The fulness of Him who fills all in all
We are now raised up with Him
And His power is now working in us
We are now growing up into Him
To the fulness of the stature of Christ
