He Is Risen

"He Is Risen" by Paul Udoh is a bright, triumphant hymn that captures the pure joy of Easter morning. The text focuses entirely on the resurrection, reminding the congregation that the "Perfect Lamb of God" who gave His life is no longer held by the grave. It is exactly the kind of straightforward, uplifting piece a choir needs when the Gloria rings out again and the church celebrates the empty tomb.

Written in a clear four-part harmony, the verses build up to a lively chorus that repeats the central message of the season. The melody is easy to pick up, making it a wonderful choice for an Entrance or Recessional hymn during Eastertide. When the choir reaches the final "O Hallelujah," it brings a genuine sense of victory and celebration to the Mass.
