alleluia

...start

For our Lord God Almighty reigns...

...Peace has come to earth again.

Blessèd hills, that heard the song,...

...He is ris­en! He is ris­en in­deed!

He is ris­en! He is ris­en in­deed!...

...Easter prais­es to our king;

Rescued from the fie­ry riv­er,...

...Rejoice, rej­oice, good Christ­ian men;

But two days since He deigned to die,...

...Come, Christ­ians, join to sing

Loud praise to Christ our king;...

...Thy glory breaks the world’s long night of gloom.

Thou for us all didst hang upon the tree;...

...start

In Thy man­ger throne we hail Thee;...

...New songs through­out the world shall ring

Christ, by a road be­fore un­trod...

...Sing prais­es to their God;

Alleluia! They love to sing...

...start

Voice of joy that can­not die;...

...Pillar and chan­cel with gar­lands rare.

All ye lil­ies with in­cense rare,...

...start

Past are the cross, the scourge, the thorn,...

...Over death to­day rose tri­um­phing.

That East­er morn, at break of day,...

...start

His the scep­ter, His the throne....

...Let earth be glad, and raise the cry,

The Prince of Life with death has striv’n,...

...Be for­ev­er blessed.

Thou wast their rock,...

...And dew was white and pear­ly:

With lov­ing but with err­ing mind,...

...Rise we with our ris­en head;

They who sang when He was born,...

...The birds do sing on ev­ery bough,

Then shout be­neath the rac­ing skies,...
