Lyrics

We a band of faithful workers,
In the army of the Lord;
Jesus is our captain,
And we’re trusting in His Word;
Tho’ He died upon the cross,
Yet He lives again today,
Glory, glo­ry, hallelujah!
Men and angels say.

Refrain

Glory, hallelujah!
Glory, hallelujah!
Shout, O shout the glad refrain!
Glory, hallelujah!
Glory, hallelujah!
Jesus lives again.
He lives again!

He has triumphed over darkness,
And as­cend­ed up on high;
Angel bands are shouting
Hallelujah thro’ the sky!
Let our voices join the chorus,
Sending back the glad refrain,
Glory, glo­ry, hallelujah!
Jesus lives again!
