1108. Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Author: Emma Turl

Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Praises to the Lord we sing,
seeing Jesus, man of sorrows,
risen and ascended King.
Now he sits beside his Father,
ruler over everything.

2   Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Christ in heaven intercedes–
mercy flows from him for cleansing,
grace to satisfy our needs:
living water for the thirsty,
living bread the hungry feeds.

3   Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Christ will love us to the end:
he who died to be our Saviour
lives for evermore our friend.
Let us follow in his footsteps
and upon his strength depend.

4   Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Jesus, you will come again–
we shall see you in your glory
and in heaven share your reign.
Make us ready to receive you–
even so, Lord, come: Amen!
