alleluia! amen!
loud praise to Christ our king;

before his throne rejoice;
praise is his gracious choice:
alleluia! amen!

alleluia! amen!
let praises fill the sky;
alleluia! amen!
he is our guide and friend,
on him we can depend;
his love shall never end:
alleluia! amen!

alleluia! amen!
life shall not end the song;

on heaven's blissful shore
his goodness we'll adore,
singing for evermore,
