A hymn of glory let us sing
New songs throughout the world shall
ring
Alleluia, Alleluia.
Christ, by a road before untrod
Ascendeth to
the throne of God.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
The holy apostolic band
Upon the Mount of Olives stand
Alleluia,
Alleluia.
And with His followers they see
Jesus’ resplendent
majesty
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
To Whom the angels drawing nigh,
“Why stand and gaze upon the
sky?”
Alleluia, Alleluia.
“This is the Savior,” thus they say.
“This is
His noble triumph day.”
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
“Again ye shall behold Him so,
As ye have today seen Him go.”
Alleluia,
Alleluia.
“In glorious pomp ascending high
Up to the portals of the
sky.”
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
O grant us thitherward to tend
And with unwearied hearts
ascend,
Alleluia, Alleluia.
Unto Thy kingdom’s throne, where Thou
As is
our faith, art seated now,
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia.
Be Thou our Joy and strong Defense,
Who art our future
Recompense,
Alleluia, Alleluia.
So shall the light that springs from
Thee
Be ours through all eternity,
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia.
O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to Thee let earth
accord,
Alleluia, Alleluia.
Who art, while endless ages run,
With
Father and with Spirit One,
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia.
