Hymn 218: Hallelujah sing exulting

Verse 1

Hallelujah sing exulting

For the Holy Ghost has come,

To prepare a chosen people

For their Lord and heav’nly home.

Soon in clouds of Light appearing,

Faithful to His promised word,

We shall see Him, therefore, breth-

ren,

Watch and pray and serve the [Lord.

Come, believing, cleanse your garments 

In the blood on Calv’ry shed,

From the old, set free for ever,

Form’d a new in Christ our Head.


Verse 2

Fall upon us, mighty Spirit

In Thy fulness from above;

New creating, all conforming 

In us, to the Lord we love.

To Thy service consecrated 

And with hearts from self set free,

Burning with Love’s pure devotion 

We will live and die for Thee.

Gifts and graces for His members 

Thou art come, abroad to shed,

Thus thro’ sings and wonders 

bringing 

Glory to our risen Head.


Verse 3

Hark, the ransomed choir is singing

Hallelujah to the Lamb,

Glory, honour, praise and worship,

Hail Him as the great  I AM.

See the Bride in dazzling raiment 

Hastes her glorious Lord to meet;

Come, Lord Jesus, we await Thee, 

While we worship at Thy feet.

Hallelujah, Everlasting 

Glory dawns upon us now,

As we hear with joy and rapture 

His clear summons: “Enter thou!”
