| Tune: | [The strife is o'er the battle done] |
| Composer: | Giovanni P. da Palestrina |
Alleluia! alleluia! alleluia!
1 The strife is o'er, the battle done;
The victory of life is won;
The song of triumph has begun:
Alleluia!
2 The powers of death have done their worst,
But Christ their legions has dispersed;
Let shout of holy joy outburst:
Alleluia!
3 The three sad days have quickly sped,
He rises glorious from the dead;
All glory to our risen Head;
Alleluia!
4 Lord, by the stripes which wounded Thee,
From death's dread sting Thy servants free,
That we may live and sing to Thee:
Alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
