1 Shout aloud your hallelujahs,
Jesus lives;
From the grave he comes in triumph,
Life He gives;
Death at last has met a victor,
Lost its sting;
Greet the Lord of life triumphant,
Hail the King.
Chorus:
Day is breaking! Greet the morning with a song;
Hope is waking, speed the joyful news along;
Jesus lives, and death can triumph nevermore;
Jesus lives, and life He gives forevermore, forevermore.
2 Hail the day of life and glory
When He rose;
When he lift the grave a victor
O’er His foes.
Shout, O shout your hallelujahs,
Greet the morn;
Death has fallen, king of terrors,
Hope is born. [Chorus]
3 Hail the day and hail the Victor
In the strife;
Crown, O crown the great Redeemer,
Prince of life.
He has made a shining pathway
Thru the night;
Lo, eternal morn is breaking,
Fadeless, bright. [Chorus]
