172- The Strife Is O'er

Jesus Christ: Resurrection and Ascension

1

  • Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
  • The strife is o'er, the battle done;
  • Now is the victor's triumph won!
  • Now be the song of praise begun.
  • Alleluia!
  • Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

2

  • The pow'rs of death have done their worst,
  • But Christ their legions has dispersed.
  • Let shouts of holy joy outburst.
  • Alleluia!

3

  • The three sad days have quickly sped,
  • He rises glorious from the dead.
  • All glory to our risen head!
  • Alleluia!

4

  • Lord, by the stripes which wounded You,
  • From death's sting free Your servants too,
  • That we may live and sing to You.
  • Alleluia!
