                 (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1941)



        1. Oh, sing with exultation,
        Sing to the Lord, rejoice,
        And in His congregation
        Shout with triumphant voice.
        For, lo, at God's right hand
        Is Christ in glory seated;
        With death and hell defeated,
        As Victor doth command.

        2. Since Christ, our Lord, is living,
        We nevermore shall die;
        To God the glory giving,
        We rise to Him on high.
        Though chastened we may be
        And to our graves be taken,
        We unto life shall waken
        And live eternally.

        3. Christ is the sure Foundation
        The builder did reject,
        But He four our salvation
        Is precious and elect
        And made the Corner-stone
        On which the Church is founded;
        This marvel now is sounded,
        The work of God alone.

        4. To Thee, O Christ, be glory,
        Who camest in His name!
        Thy people sing the story
        Thy praises to proclaim.
        We thank Thee and adore,
        O Christ, our Lord and Savior;
        Thy grace and boundless favor
        Stand fast forevermore.
