16547. Once Again With Joyful Voices

1 Once again with joy­ful voic­es,
Gather we to praise and pray;
Once again each heart re­joic­es,
On this hap­py East­er day.
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Sing aloud a joy­ous lay.

2 Once again in ado­ra­tion,
Bow we low be­fore the throne;
Praise the God of our sal­va­tion,
Once de­clared "the great un­known."
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
He is God, and God alone.

3 Once again with ex­ul­ta­tion,
Praise the Ho­ly Spir­it, too,
Who, in doubt and he­si­ta­tion,
Points us to the right and true.
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Everlasting praise is due.

4 Hallelujah to the Fa­ther,
Hallelujah to the Son,
Hallelujah to the Spi­rit,
Hallelujah, Three in One.
Hallelujah, hal­le­lu­jah,
Christ is ris’n, and Heav’n is won.
