Hallelujah! 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife When life and death contended; The victory remained with life, The reign of death was ended. Holy Scripture plainly says That death is swallowed up by death, Its sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree - So strong his love - to save us. See, his blood now marks our door; Faith points to it; death passes o'er, And Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah! 4 So let us keep the festival To which the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the joy of all, The sun that warms and lights us. Now his grace to us imparts Eternal sunshine to our hearts; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 5 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the bread of heaven; The Word of grace has purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed; He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other! Hallelujah! Topics: Easter; Easter Day; Easter Languages: English Tune Title: CHRIST LAG IN TODESBANDEN
