Refrain: HALLELUJAH, JESUS LIVE.
HE CONQUER DEATH FINISH.
DIE MUST DON'T-MEAN-TO-SAY.
JESUS LIVE FOREVER.
HE LIVE, HE LIVE.

A-TO-Z HE.
SIN CURSE US NO MORE.
WE OPPRESSION-OFF FINISH.
LAMB FROM GOD RISEN FINISH.
HE LIVE, HE LIVE.

Notes: DON'T-MEAN-TO-SAY - [1], PO > NDS, FO up, is brought to mouth with pl.

A-TO-Z - [5], PO > signer, FO up, DH [A] is held at the thumb of the NDH and then moves > DS while tracing a [Z] at the little finger.

CURSE - [5:], PO > singer, is held at mouth and moves > what is cursed while closing to [S], then fist is shaken at what is cursed.

OPPRESSION-OFF - Starts like PRESSURE, DH [B], PO down, FO away, push down slightly on [S], PO > DS, FO away, then the DH is brought upwards suddenly and the signer mouths "off".

Lyrics:

Refrain: Hallelujah, Jesus is alive.
Death has lost it's victory,
And the grave has been denied.
Jesus lives forever.
He's alive; He's alive.

Verse: He's the Alpha and Omega.
The first and last is He.
The curse of sin is broken,
And we have perfect liberty.
The Lamb of God has risen.
He's alive; He's alive.

Ending: Hallelujah, Jesus is alive.
