Hymnal: Christian Hymns #63 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1 The strife is o'er, the battle done!
The victory of life is won;
The song of triumph has begun,
Hallelujah!
2 The powers of death have done their worst,
But Christ their legions hath dispersed;
Let shouts of holy joy outburst,
Hallelujah!
3 The three sad days are quickly sped;
He rises glorious from the dead:
All glory to our risen Head!
Hallelujah!
4 He closed the yawning gates of hell;
The bars from heaven's high portals fell;
Let hymns of praise His triumphs tell;
Hallelujah!
5 Lord! by the stripes which wounded Thee,
From death's dread sting Thy servants free,
That we may live, and sing to Thee,
Hallelujah! Topics: TheChurch Year Easter; Christ Head Languages: English Tune Title: ALL PRAISE TO GOD ENTHRONED ON HIGH
The strife is o'er, the battle done!
