Alleluia! Sing to Jesus

Alleluia sing to Jesus
His the scepter His the throne
Alleluia his the triumph
His the victory alone
Hark the songs of peaceful Zion
Thunder like a mighty flood
Jesus out of every nation
Has redeemed us by His blood

Alleluia bread of heaven
Here on earth our food our stay
Alleluia here the sinful
Flee to You from day to day
Intercessor friend of sinners
Earth's redeemer hear our plea
Where the song of all the sinless
Sweep across the crystal sea

Alleluia not as orphans
Are we left in sorrow now
Alleluia he is near us
Faith believes nor questions how
Though the cloud from sight received Him
When the forty days were o'er
Shall our hearts forget His promise
I am with you evermore
