Down from their home on high,
Down thro’ the starry sky,
Angels descending fly,
While the earth shaketh;
Roll they the stone away
From where the Savior lay—
Out into glorious day
His way He taketh.
Loud hallelujahs! Loud hallelujahs!
Our risen Savior, to Thee we sing:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
He from the grave is gone,
Treading the way alone;
Death now is overthrown
By His endeavor!
Where is thy victory
O Grave? and where shall be,
O Death, our fear of thee?
Vanished forever!
Loud hallelujahs! Loud hallelujahs!
Our risen Savior, to Thee we sing:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Sing we Thy praise for aye,
Who washed our sins away;
Unto Thy Name alway
We shall be singing:
Far down the tracts of time,
Shall every earthly clime
Join in the song sublime,
With praises ringing!
Loud hallelujahs! Loud hallelujahs!
Our risen Savior, to Thee we sing:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
