1 Sing with all the sons of glory, Sing the resurrection song! 2 Oh, what glory, far exceeding All that eye has yet perceived! Never that full joy conceived. Christ has passed the eternal gates. 3 Life eternal! heaven rejoices, Child of God, lift up thy head! Saints all longing for their heaven, 4 Life eternal! oh, what wonders Crowd on faith; what joy unknown, From the heart all sorrow sunders Where the Easter light has shown! Oh, to enter that bright portal, See that shining firmament, Know, in Thee, O God immortal, "Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent!" 1 Jesus Christ is risen to-day, Alleluia ! 2 Hymns of praise then let us sing, Alleluia! 3 But the strife which He endured, Alleluia! |
