Hymn 80 - The Strife Is O’er

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

The strife is o’er the battle done;

The victory of life is won;

The song of triumph has begun:

Alleluia!

The powers of death have done their worst,

But Christ their legions hath dispersed;

Let shouts of holy joy outburst:

Alleluia!

The three sad days have quickly sped,

He rises glorious from the dead;

All glory to our risen Head:

Alleluia!

Lord, by the stripes which wounded Thee,

From death’s dread sting Thy servants free,

That we may live and sing to Thee:

Alleluia!
