Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Alleluia, alleluia, hearts and voices heavenward raise 
 Alleliua! Alleliua! Heart and voice to Heaven raise, Sing to God a hymn of gladness, Sing to God a hymn of praise; He Who on the cross a ransom For the world’s salvation bled, Jesus Christ the King of glory Now is risen from the dead. 
 Now the iron bars are broken, Christ from death to life is born, glorious life, and life immortal, on this holy Easter morn. Christ has triumphed, and we conquer by his mighty enterprise: we with him to life eternal by his resurrection rise. 
 Christ is risen, Christ the firstfruits Of the holy harvest field, Which will all its full abundance, At His glorious advent, yield; Then the golden ears of harvest Will before His presence wave, Rising in His sunshine joyous, From the furrow 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. 
 Alleliua! Alleliua! Glory be to God above! Alleliua, to the Savior, Fount of life and source of love; Alleliua, to the Spirit Let our high ascriptions be; Alleliua, now and ever, To the blessèd Trinity.
