390. Alleluia! Alleluia

Alleluia! Alleluia!

Hearts to heaven 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.

Christ is risen, Christ the first-fruits

Of the holy harvest field,

Which will all its full abundance

At His second coining yield;

Then the golden ears of harvest

Will their heads before Him wave,

Ripened by His glorious sunshine

From the furrows of the grave.

Christ is risen, we are risen;

Shed upon us heavenly grace,

Rain, and dew, and gleams of glory

From the brightness of Thy face;

That we, with our hearts in heaven,

Here on earth may fruitful be,

And by angel-hands be gathered,

And be ever, Lord, with Thee.

Alleluia! Alleluia!

Glory be to God on high;

Alleluia to the Saviour,

Who has gained the victory;

Alleluia to the Spirit,

Fount of love and sanctity;

Alleluia! Alleluia!

To the Triune Majesty. Amen.
