''Christ the Lord Is Risen Today'' is a Christian hymn associated with Easter. Most of the stanzas were written by Charles Wesley, and the hymn appeared under the title ''Hymn for Easter Day'' in ''Hymns and Sacred Songs'' by Charles and John Wesley in 1739. It remains a traditional processional hymn on Easter Sunday. The hymn is a variation of an earlier hymn ''Jesus Christ Is Risen Today'', a 14th-century Latin hymn which had been translated into English and published in ''Lyra Davidica'' in 1708 (and later in 1749 in Arnold's ''Compleat Psalmodist''). In some hymnals, ''Jesus Christ Is Risen Today'' is in fact the 3 stanza ''Compleat Psalmodist'' version with one or more of the additional stanzas written by Wesley appended. Many hymnals include both hymns separately. Almost all list ''Jesus Christ Is Risen Today'' to be sung to the hymn tune ''Easter Hymn'' (either the original from ''Lyra Davidica'' or an alternative arrangement by William Henry Monk). Some, such as the Australian Hymn Book, and the United Methodist Hymnal also list that as the tune for ''Christ the Lord Is Risen Today''. However, most list ''Christ the Lord Is Risen Today'' to be sung to the anonymous tune ''Nassau'' (first found in a late 17th-century German book of sacred tunes), to the tune ''Gwalchmai'' by Welsh composer Joseph David Jones, or to the tune ''Llanfair'', by another Welsh composer, Robert Williams. Hymns Old and New (New Anglican Edition - published by Kevin Mayhew Ltd) uses Wurttemberg with Alleluias (attributed to Hundert Arien, Dresden 1694) for 'Christ the Lord is Risen Again'. ==See also== * Melisma * Resurrection of Jesus Christ 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christ the Lord Is Risen Today」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
