The Strife Is O'er Lyrics

The Strife Is O'er - VocalEssence Chorale

...

1: THE strife is o’er, the battle done;

Now is the Victor’s triumph won;

Now be the song of praise begun:

Alleluia!

2: The powers of death have done their worst,

But Christ their legions hath dispersed;

Let shouts of holy joy outburst:

Alleluia!

3: The three sad days have quickly sped;

He rises glorious from the dead;

All glory to our risen Head:

Alleluia!

4: Lord, by the stripes which wounded Thee,

From death’s dread sting Thy servants free,

That we may live and sing to Thee:

Alleluia.
