HALLELUIA, HE IS RISEN

The alleluia chorus
of the angels when they sing,
start the air to rumble
trembling every living thing.

Halleluia, Halleluia
Jesus Christ is risen,
lifting the veil of sinfulness
that is all of mankind’s prison.

The light of God outpouring
from His each and every wound,
lighting up the darkness
that was His lonely tomb.

Dressed in the glory of His Kingdom
He goes forth to greet His loves,
He visits first His mother
the world’s most precious dove.

Then one by one He sees them all
confirms all He said would be,
that to love and serve Him always
would lead to victory.

He said He had to leave them
to sit upon His throne,
so He sent the Holy Spirit
so they would never be alone.
