Lyrics

1. Alleluia, alleluia! Hearts to heav'n and voices raise: Sing to God a hymn of gladness, sing to God a hymn of praise. He who on the cross a victim for the world's salvation bled– Jesus Christ, the King of Glory, now is risen from the dead.
2. Alleluia, Christ is risen! Death at last has met defeat: See the ancient pow'rs of evil in confusion and retreat. Once He died and once was burried: Now He lives forevermore, Jesus Christ, the world's Redeemer, whom we worship and adore.
3. Christ is risen, be uplifted! Set your hearts on things above; there in all the Father's glory lives and reigns our King of love. Hear the word of peace He brings us, see His wounded hands and side! Now let ev'ry wrong be ended, ev'ry sin be crucified.
4. Alleluia, alleluia! Unto God all glory be: Alleluia to the Saviour who has gained the victory. Alleluia to the Spirit, fount of love and sanctity! Alleluia, alleluia to the Triune Majesty!
