Alleluia! sing to Jesus!

by William Chatterton Dix

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 167.

Verse 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.

Verse 2

Alleluia! not as orphans Are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! He is near us, Faith believes, nor questions how; Though the cloud from sight received Him When the forty days were o’er Shall our hearts forget His promise, “I am with you evermore.”

Verse 3

Alleluia! bread of angels, 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.
