9761. Sing Hallelujah, Christ Doth Live

1 Sing hallelujah, Christ doth live,
And peace on earth restore;
Come, ransomed souls, and glory give,
Sing, worship, and adore;
With grateful hearts to Him we pay
Our thanks in humble wise;
Who aught unto our charge can lay?
’Tis God that justifies.

2 Who can condemn, since Christ was dead,
And ever lives to God?
Now our whole debt is fully paid,
He saves us by His blood;
The ransomed hosts in earth and Heaven
Through countless choirs proclaim,
He hath redeemed us; praise be given
To God and to the Lamb.

3 In all we do, constrained by love,
We’ll joy to Him afford,
And to God’s will obedient prove
Through Jesus Christ our Lord;
Sing hallelujah, and adore
On earth the Lamb once slain,
Till we in Heaven shall evermore
Exalt His name, Amen.
