Religious Music - Alleluia, Hearts to Heaven lyrics

rate me

Alleluia, alleluia, hearts to heaven and voices raise

Sing to God a hymn of gladness, sing to God a hymn of praise

He, who on the cross a victim for the world's salvation bled

Jesus Christ, the King of glory now is risen from the dead.

Now the iron bars are broken, Christ from death to life is born

Glorious life and life immortal on this holy Easter morn

Christ has triumphed and we conquer by his mighty enterprise

We with him to life eternal by his resurrection rise.

Christ is risen, Christ, the first fruits of the holy harvest field

Which will in all its full abundance at his second coming yield

Then the golden ears of harvest will their heads before him wave

Ripened by his glorious sunshine from the furrows of the grave.

Christ is risen, we are risen, shed upon us heavenly grace

Rain and dew and gleams of glory from the brightness of thy face

That we with our hearts in heaven here on earth may fruitful be

And by angel hands be gathered and be ever, Lord, with thee.

Alleluia, alleluia, glory be to God on high

Alleluia! to the Savior who has gained the victory

Alleluia! to the Spirit, fount of love and sanctity

Alleluia, alleluia, to the Triune Majesty...
