I.XCIV. Solemn Praise

1 Sing the Triumphs of your conqu'ring
Head, and crucified King;
His Atchievments, when he vanquish'd
All our Enemies, we'll sing:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

2 Long he struggled with confused
Noise, and Garments roll'd in Blood
'Till destroying Sin, and Hell, and
Death, he rescu'd Man to God:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

3 Most triumphant, greatly glor'ous,
He from Death and Hell arose;
In him all his Church, victor'ous,
Triumph'd o'er her dreadful Foes:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

4 High ascending, 'midst angelic
Songs, and Sounds of Trumpets loud,
In eternal Triumph leading
All the Captives of his Blood:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

5 Far above the highest Heaven
Thus he gloriously ascends,
Where the Honour's to him given,
Ev'ry Thought of Man transcends:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

6 There, exalted, live and reign, whilst
We admire thy Wounds and Blood,
'Till we see thee come again, in
All the Pomp and Pow'r of God:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.
