Alleluia! Sing to Jesus,
His the sceptre, his the throne
Alleluia, his the triumph,
His the victory alone
Hark! the songs of peaceful Zion
Thunder like a mighty blood,
Jesus out of ev’ry nation
Hath redeemed us by his blood

Alleluia, not as orphans
Are we left in sorrow now
Alleluia, he is near us,
Faith believes, nor questions how,
Though the cloud from sight received him
When the forty days were o’er,
Shall our hearts forget his promise,
I am with you evermore

Alleluia, bread of heavèn,
Thou on earth our food, our stay;
Alleluia, here the sinful
Flee to thee from day to day;
Intercessor, friend of snners,
Earth's redeemer, plead for me
Where the songs of all the sinless
Sweep across the crystal sea.

Alleluia, King eternal,
Thou the Lord of Lords we own,
Alleluia, born of Mary,
Earth thy footstool, heav'n thy throne:
Thou within the veil hast entered,
Robed in flesh, our great High Priest,
Thou on earth both priest and victim
In the Eucharistic feast.
