“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today (He Is Not Dead)” is a modern take on a classic Easter hymn, and this Christ the Lord Is Risen Today chord chart gives guitar players a simple way to lead it in a contemporary worship setting. The added chorus brings a fresh, high-energy element while still keeping the familiar structure, making it a great choice for Easter services or any celebration-focused moment.
The chords are straightforward and repeat throughout most of the song, making it approachable for acoustic guitar or a full band. As the song builds, it’s more about energy and dynamics than anything technically difficult. You can play it in the key of G, C, or B, or adjust with a capo depending on your vocal range. This chart is available in the key of G, C, and B, along with a Nashville Numbers version for easy transposing.
