Laudis Corona ‎#59b

59b. Easter song of praise

1 The strain upraise of joy and praise, Alleluia.
To the glory of their King,
Shall the ransomed people sing, Alleluia, Alleluia.
And the choirs that swell on high,
Shall re-echo through the sky, Alleluia, Alleluia.

2 They in the rest of paradise who dwell, Alleluia,
The blessed ones with joy the chorus swell, Alleluia, Alleluia.
The planets beaming on their heavenly way,
The shining constellations join and say, Alleluia, Alleluia.

3 Wherefore we sing, both heart and voice awaking, Alleluia!
And children's voices echo, answer making, Alleluia!
Now from all men be outpoured
Alleluia to the Lord;
With Alleluia evermore
The Son and Spirit we adore.
Praise be done to the Three in One.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
