Alleluia, Alleluia! Hearts to Heaven
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Appears in 219 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 1:19-20 First Line: Alleluia, alleluia! Lyrics: 1 Alleluia, alleluia!
Hearts to heav'n 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.
2 Alleluia, Christ is risen!
Death at last has met defeat:
see the ancient pow'rs of evil
in confusion and retreat;
once he died, and once was buried:
now he lives forevermore,
Jesus Christ, the world's Redeemer,
whom we worship and adore.
3 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!

A safe stronghold our God is still
Author: Martin Luther (1483-1546); Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 1:27 Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still,
a trusty shield and weapon;
he'll keep us clear from all the ill
that hath us now o'ertaken.
The ancient prince of hell
hath risen with purpose fell;
strong mail of craft and power
he weareth in this hour;
on earth is not his fellow.
2 With force of arms we nothing can,
full soon were we down-ridden;
but for us fights the proper Man
whom God himself hath bidden.
Ask ye who is this same?
Christ Jesus is his name,
the Lord Sabaoth's Son;
he, and no other one,
shall conquer in the battle.
3 And were this world all devils o'er,
and watching to devour us,
we lay it not to heart so sore;
they cannot overpower us.
And let the prince of ill
look grim as e'er he will,
he harms us not a whit;
for why? his doom is writ;
a word shall quickly slay him.
4 God's word, for all their craft and force,
one moment will not linger,
but, spite of hell, shall have its course;
'tis written by his finger.
And though they take our life,
goods, honour, children, wife,
yet is their profit small;
these things shall vanish all:
the city of God remaineth. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Risen - Reign and Priesthood; Conflict; God Protection of; Victory Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG
