Alleluia! Sing To Jesus! -- Instrumental Hymn

This is an instrumental arrangement of Alleluia! Sing To Jesus! Words by William Chatterton Dix, 1866. Music by: Rowland Hugh Prichard, 1830.

1. 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 hath redeemed us by His blood.

2. Alleluia! Bread of Heaven, Thou on earth our food, our stay!
Alleluia! Here the sinful flee to Thee from day to day
Intercessor, friend of sinners, earth's Redeemer, plead for me.
Where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea.

3. Alleluia! King eternal, Thee the Lord of lords we own
Alleluia! Born of Mary, earth Thy footstool, heaven Thy throne.
Thou within the veil hast entered, robed in flesh, our great High Priest
Thou on earth both Priest and Victim in the eucharistic feast.

4. Alleluia! Not as orphans are we left in sorrow now
Alleluia! He is near us, faith believes, nor questions how
Tho' the cloud from sight received Him, when the forty days were o'er
Shall our hearts forget His promise, "I am with you evermore?"
