1. A hymn of glory let us sing:
New hymns throughout the world shall ring:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ, by a road before untrod,
Ascends unto the throne of God.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
2. The holy apostolic band
Upon the Mount of Olives stand;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
And with His followers they see
their Lord ascend in majesty.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
3. O Lord, our homeward pathway bend
that our unwearied hearts ascend,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
where, seated on your Father's throne,
you reign as King of kings alone.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
4. O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to you let earth accord,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
You are while endless ages run,
With Father and with Spirit One.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
