Let Us Sing Alleluia Today

Let us sing Al­le­luia to­day!

For the tri­umph is won

And the bat­tle is done;

Christ now op­ens the heav­en­ly way.

O come to His tem­ple with sing­ing

Hear the glad re­sur­rect­ion bells ring­ing.

Alleluia! Re­joice! Alleluia! Re­joice!

Let us sing Al­le­luia to­day!

He who suf­fered and bled

Is first-born from the dead;

See the place where the Sav­ior once lay.

Let us sing Al­le­luia to­day!

For be­fore it was light

Came a mes­sen­ger bright

And the stone from the tomb rolled away.

Let us sing Al­le­luia to­day!

By His own will and might

Christ hath put death to flight

And has spoil­èd the grave of its prey.

Let us sing Al­le­luia to­day!

For thanks­giv­ing and song

To the Vic­tor be­long

Who a con­quer­or comes from the fray.
