1. Ye sons and daughters of the Lord,
The King of heav'n,
The King adored,
From death this day Himself restored.
Alleluia.
Chorus:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
2. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
All in the early morning gray,
Went holy women on their way,
To see the tomb where Jesus lay.
Alleluia!
3. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Of spices pure a precious store
In their pure hands these women bore,
To anoint the sacred Body o'er.
Alleluia!
4. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Then straightway one in white they see,
Who saith, "Ye seek the Lord; but He
Is risen, and gone to Galilee."
Alleluia!
5. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Now let us praise the Lord most high;
And strive His name to magnify,
On this great day, through earth and sky.
Alleluia!
