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 has dispersed:
let shouts of holy joy outburst, hallelujah!
3 He closed the ancient gates of hell,
the bars from heaven's high portals fell;
let hymns of praise his triumphs tell, hallelujah!
4 On the third morn he rose again,
glorious in majesty to reign;
O let us swell the joyful strain, hallelujah! Languages: English Tune Title: VICTORY
