167- Alleluia Sing to Jesus

Jesus Christ: Resurrection and Ascension

1

  • Alleluia! sing to Jesus!
  • His the scepter, His the throne;
  • Alleluia! His the triumph,
  • His the victory alone;
  • Hark! the songs of peaceful Sion
  • Thunder like a mighty flood;
  • Jesus out of every nation
  • Hath redeemed us by His blood.

2

  • Alleluia! not as orphans
  • Are we left in sorrow now;
  • Alleluia! He is near us,
  • Faith believes, nor questions how:
  • Though the cloud from sight received Him,
  • When the forty days were o'er,
  • Shall our hearts forget His promise,
  • "I am with you evermore"?

3

  • Alleluia! Bread of heaven,
  • Thou on earth our food, our stay!
  • Alleluia! here the sinful
  • Flee to Thee from day to day:
  • Intercessor, Friend of sinners,
  • Earth's Redeemer plead for me,
  • Where the songs of all the sinless
  • Sweep across the crystal sea.
