Lyrics

The Lord has aris’n on high,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Salvation to men brought nigh,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Death’s pow­er is rent in twain,
The grave in its might is slain,
Jesus lives again,
Hail His glo­ri­ous reign,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah.

Refrain

Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
He is ris­en, all vic­to­ri­ous,
Praise to His glo­ri­ous name;
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
He is ris­en, hal­le­lu­jah,
Praise His name.

The king­dom of Heav’n brought near,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
And peace by His pow’r is here,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
For men sal­va­tion won,
The fear of the grave is gone,
Christ is on the throne,
Hail the ris­en Son,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah.

Refrain

He came to the lone and sad,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
He bids ev­ery heart be glad,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Sing praise to Je­sus’ name,
Sing forth with a loud ac­claim,
For man­kind He came,
Suffered death and shame,
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah.
