MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[1]
'Christ the Lord is risen today,'
sons of men and angels say;
raise your joys and triumphs high;
sing, O heavens, and earth reply.
Love's redeeming work is done;
fought the fight, the battle won;
vain the stone, the watch, the seal;
Christ has burst the gates of hell.
[2]
Lives again our glorious king;
where, O death, is now your sting?
Once he died our souls to save;
where's your victory, O grave?
Soar we now where Christ has led,
following our exalted Head;
made like him, like him we rise:
ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
