Alleluia! Sing to Jesus

W. Chatterton Dix (1866) • English

Primary Scripture: Deuteronomy 10:17

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 has 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. Tho' 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 heaven, here on earth our food, our stay. Alleluia! Here the sinful flee to You from day to day. Intercessor, Friend of sinners, earth's Redeemer, hear our plea where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea.
