With songs of hallelujah we greet the Christmastide,
While anthems of rejoicing resound on every side.
The sky is all illumined with Bethl’m’s shining star;
It sends the Christmas message to nations near and far.
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the newborn King!
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the blessèd King of kings!
With songs of hallelujah we gather here today,
To tell the Christmas story, and bear its gift away;
The gift of peace eternal, and love that cannot die,
But leads us on to glory, in Heaven’s arches high.
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the newborn King!
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the blessèd King of kings!
With songs of hallelujah this day of days we greet,
And gather round the Christ Child, to worship at His feet.
He is the King of glory, His reign shall never cease;
He rules our hearts forever, in all goodwill and peace.
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the newborn King!
Hallelujah! Sing for joy, O sing!
Hallelujah! Hail the blessèd King of kings!
