2. The strife is past, the battle done; now is the victor’s triumph won; now let the song of praise be sung: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

3. Death’s mightiest powers have done their worst, and Jesus has his foes dispersed: let shouts of praise and joy outburst: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

4. On the third day he rose again glorious in majesty to reign: let us take up the great refrain. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

5. He closed the frowning gates of hell; the bars from heaven‘s high portals fell; let hymns of praise his triumphs tell: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

6. Now by your stripes, our wounded King, your servants free from death’s dread sting, that we may live in you and sing. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
