1 The strife is o'er, the battle done;
the victory of life is won;
the song of triumph has begun.

but Christ their legions has dispersed.
Let shouts of holy joy outburst.

he rises glorious from the dead.
All glory to our risen Head.

the bars from heaven's high portals fell.
Let hymns of praise his triumph tell.

from death's dread sting thy servants free,
that we may live and sing to thee.
Alleluia!

O Lord of Heaven and Earth and Sea
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 8.8.8.4 Appears in 333 hymnals Refrain First Line: Souls redeemed and sins forgiven Lyrics: 1 O Lord of heav'n and earth and sea,
To thee all praise and glory be!
How shall we show our love to thee,
Who givest all?
We'll sing thy praise in songs of holy joy!
Thy work, O Lord, shall all our pow'rs employ!
Chorus:
Souls redeemed and sins forgiv'n,
For means of grace and hopes of heav'n,
Thou didst not spare thine only Son,
But freely gave that blessed One
To save us all.
2 For peaceful hours and happy days,
For all the blessings earth displays,
We owe thee thankfulness and praise,
Who givest all!
We'll sing thy praise in songs of holy joy!
Thy work, O Lord, shall all our pow'rs employ! [Chorus]
3 Whatever, Lord, we lend to thee,
Repaid a thousand fold shall be;
Then gladly will we give to thee,
Who givest all!
We'll sing thy praise in songs of holy joy!
Thy work, O Lord, shall all our pow'rs employ! [Chorus]
4 To thee from whom we all derive,
Our life, our gifts, our pow'r to give;
O may we ever with thee live,
Who givest all!
We'll sing thy praise in songs of holy joy!
Thy work, O Lord, shall all our pow'rs employ! [Chorus]
