326 Hallelujah! Jesus lives!

1 Hallelujah! Jesus lives! He is now the Living One; From the gloomy house of death Forth the Conqueror has gone, Bright Forerunner to the skies Of His people, yet to rise. 2 Jesus lives! let all rejoice! Praise Him, ransomed ones of earth! Praise Him in a nobler song, Cherubim of heavenly birth! Praise the Victor-King, whose sway Sin, and death, and hell obey. 3 Jesus lives! why weepest thou? Why that sad and frequent sigh? He who died our Brother here, Lives our Brother still on high,-- Lives for ever, to bestow Blessings on His Church below. 4 Jesus lives! and thus, my soul, Life eternal waits for thee; Joined to Him, thy living Head, Where He is, thou too shalt be; With Himself, at His right hand, Victor over death shalt stand. 5 Jesus lives! To Him my heart Draws with ever new delight: Earthly vanities, depart! Hinder not my heavenward flight! Let this spirit ever rise To its magnet in the skies. 6 Hallelujah, angels, sing! Join us in our hymn of praise, Let your chorus swell the strain Which our feebler voices raise: Glory to our God above, And on earth His peace and love!
