<p>The strife is o&#8217;er, the battle done;<br>
The victory of life is won;<br>
The song of triumph has begun: Alleluia!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!</p>
<p>The powers of death have done their worst;<br>
But Christ their legions hath dispersed;<br>
Let shouts of holy joy outburst: Alleluia!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>The three sad days are quickly sped;<br>
He rises glorious from the dead;<br>
All glory to our risen Head! Alleluia!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>He closed the yawning gates of hell;<br>
The bars from heaven&#8217;s high portals fell;<br>
Let hymns of praise His triumphs tell! Alleluia!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Lord, by the stripes which wounded Thee,<br>
From death&#8217;s dread sting Thy servants free,<br>
That we may live, and sing to Thee: Alleluia!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
