Sing Alleluia forth
in duteous praise,
Ye citizens of Heav’n;
O sweetly raise
An endless Alleluia.
Ye powers, who stand before
the Eternal Light,
In hymning choirs
re-echo to the height,
An endless Alleluia.
The holy city shall
take up your strain,
And with glad songs resounding
wake again
An endless Alleluia.
To blissful antiphons
ye thus rejoice
To render to the Lord
with thankful voice
An endless Alleluia.
Ye who have gained at length
your palms in bliss,
Victorious ones, your chant
will still be this,
An endless Alleluia.
There, in one grand acclaim,
forever ring
The strains which tell
the honor of your King,
An endless Alleluia.
This is sweet rest for weary ones
brought back,
This is glad food and drink
which ne’er shall lack,
An endless Alleluia.
While Thee, by Whom
were all things made, we praise
Forever, and tell out in sweetest lays,
An endless Alleluia.
Almighty Christ,
to Thee our voices sing
Glory forevermore; to Thee we bring
An endless Alleluia.
