1. Our song of praise to God ascend,
And there with angels’ voices blend.
The day of gladness now is here;
Sing hallelujah with good cheer. Hallelujah!
2. From heaven, in the dark of night,
He came and brought eternal light.
Behold now how this light divine
Throughout this pilgrim’s dale doth shine. Hallelujah!
3. And in the Father’s image pure
He came earth’s trials to endure.
He leads us with a gentle hand
To that long cherished, happy land. Hallelujah!
4. He, who in glory there doth reign,
Did dwell on earth as humble man;
That through His noble sacrifice,
We find the path to paradise. Hallelujah!
5. And when our days here are complete,
As brethren, we our Lord shall meet,
And be transformed before His sight
To glory and celestial light. Hallelujah!
And there with angels’ voices blend.
The day of gladness now is here;
Sing hallelujah with good cheer. Hallelujah!
2. From heaven, in the dark of night,

He leads us with a gentle hand
To that long cherished, happy land. Hallelujah!

Did dwell on earth as humble man;
That through His noble sacrifice,
We find the path to paradise. Hallelujah!
5. And when our days here are complete,
As brethren, we our Lord shall meet,
And be transformed before His sight
To glory and celestial light. Hallelujah!
