XXIII. Solemn Praise

1 Sing the Triumphs of your conqu'ring
Head, and crucified King;
His atchievements, when he vanquish'd
All our enemies we'll sing:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

2 Long he struggled with confused
Noise and garments roll'd in blood;
'Till destroying sin and hell, and
Death, he rescu'd man to God:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

3 Most triumphant, greatly glor'ous,
He from death and hell arose!
In him all his church victor'ous,
Triumph'd o'er her dreadful foes:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

4 High ascending, 'midst angelick
Songs, and sounds of trumpets loud,
In eternal triumph leading
All the captives of his blood:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

5 Far above the highest heav'n
Thus he glor'ously ascends,
Where the honour's to him given,
Ev'ry thought of ,an transcends:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.

6 There, exalted, live and reign, whilst
We admire thy wounds and blood,
'Till we see thee come again, in
All the pomp and power of God:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory, Lord be thine.
