ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
1. Today the Son of God triumphs,
Who indeed resurrected from the dead,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
With great splendor and glory.
We thank him for that forever,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
2.With his power he has destroyed the Devil,
Has demolished his entire form,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The hero, as he is accustomed to doing,
Has mightily thrown down his enemy.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
3. O sweet Lord, Jesus Christ!
You who are the Savior of sinners,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Guide us through your mercy
As we rejoice in your glory.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
4. There is now no enemy who can harm us anymore,
There is no danger when he grumbles at us,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The terrible enemy now lies in the mud,
But on the other hand, we are God's children.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
6. We all thank you for this,
And we long for the kingdom of heaven,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
In the end, God will help us all,
So we sing with great sounds,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
7. To God the Father in the highest throne,
with Christ, his true son,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
and to the Holy Spirit in the same way
Be praise, honor and glory forever,
Hallelujah, hallelujah! |
