Poem Words (four verses)
1.
Alleluia, song of gladness,
voice of joy that cannot die;
alleluia is the anthem
ever dear by choirs on high;
in the house of God abiding
thus they sing eternally.

2.
Alleluia you are sounding,
true Jerusalem and free;
alleluia, joyful mother,
bring us to your jubilee;
here by Babylon's sad waters
mourning exiles still are we.

3.
Alleluia cannot always
be our song while here below;
alleluia our transgressions
make us for a while forgo;
for the solemn time is coming
when our tears for sin shall flow.

4.
in our hymns we pray with longing:
Grant us, blessed Trinity,
at the last to keep glad Easter
with the faithful saints on high;
there to you forever singing
alleluia joyfully.
