James W. Keefe - Resurrection Anthem - текст песни (слова)

Rejoice in Christ your King, 
 cast earthly fears away;
 and let the joyful anthem ring: 
 The Lord is ris'n today!
 The pow'rs of hell with vengeance 
 old man's servitude did win.
 But God the Son in mercy bold 
 did free the world from sin.
 
 Let alleluias fill the air, 
 let all the earth proclaim
 the ever glorious Saviour 
 from whom redemption came;
 whose majesty beyond compare 
 does cause us to exclaim:
 Alleluia!
 
 Rejoice, angelic hosts 
 in heav'nly chorus swell;
 Archangels sound the joyful boast, 
 our triumph over hell.
 Sing Virtues, Princedoms, cry the hymn, 
 sing Pow'rs, Dominions, Thrones.
 Let Cherubim and Seraphim 
 reply in wondrous tones.
 
 To Father, Son and Spirit blest, 
 to Godhead One and Three,
 to Wisdom ever manifest 
 unending glory be;
 whose majesty we do affirm 
 throughout eternity:
 Alleluia!
