A hymn of glo­ry let us sing
New songs through­out the world shall ring
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
Christ, by a road be­fore un­trod
Ascendeth to the throne of God.
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

The holy apos­tol­ic band
Upon the Mount of Ol­ives stand
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
And with His fol­low­ers they see
Jesus’ re­splen­dent majesty
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

To whom the an­gels draw­ing nigh,
Why stand and gaze up­on the sky?
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
This is the Sav­ior, thus they say.
This is His no­ble tri­umph day.
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

Again ye shall be­hold Him so,
As ye have to­day seen Him go.
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
In glo­ri­ous pomp as­cend­ing high
Up to the por­tals of the sky.
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

O grant us thi­ther­ward to tend
And with un­wear­ied hearts as­cend,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
Unto Thy king­dom’s throne, where Thou
As is our faith, art seat­ed now,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

Be Thou our joy and strong de­fense,
Who art our fu­ture re­com­pense,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
So shall the light that springs from Thee
Be ours through all eter­ni­ty,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.

O ris­en Christ, as­cend­ed Lord,
All praise to Thee let earth ac­cord,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia.
Who art, while end­less ages run,
With Fa­ther and with Spi­rit One,
Alleluia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia, Al­le­lu­ia.
