For our offenses given;
But now at God's right hand he stands
And brings us life from heaven.
Therefore let us joyful be
And sing to God right thankfully
Loud songs of hallelujah. Hallelujah!

When life and death contended.
The victory remained with life;
The reign of death was ended.
Holy Scripture plainly says
That death is swallowed up by death,
Its sting is lost forever. Hallelujah!
3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see,
Whom God so freely gave us;
He died on the accursed tree--
So strong his love--to save us.
See, his blood now marks our door;
Faith points to it; death passes o'er,
And Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah!
4 So let us keep the festival
To which the Lord invites us;
Christ is himself the joy of all,

Wherefore let us joyful be,
And sing to God right thankfully
Loud songs of Alleluia! Alleluia!
2. No son of man could conquer Death,
Such mischief sin had wrought us,
For innocence dwelt not on earth,
And therefore Death had brought us
Into thralldom from of old
And ever grew more strong and bold
And kept us in his bondage. Alleluia!
3. But Jesus Christ, God’s only Son,
To our low state descended,
The cause of Death He has undone,
His power forever ended,
Ruined all his right and claim
And left him nothing but the name,
His sting is lost forever. Alleluia!
4. It was a strange and dreadful strife
When life and death contended;

5. Here the true Paschal Lamb we see,
Whom God so freely gave us;
He died on the accursed tree—
So strong His love!—to save us.
See, His blood doth mark our door;
Faith points to it, Death passes over,
And Satan cannot harm us. Alleluia!
6. So let us keep the festival
