Alleluia dulce carmen - another Neale translation

I have now found a second version of J.M.Neale's translation of Alleluia dulce carmenwhich is, I think, preferable. It is sung to Tantum ergo

Alleluia, song of sweetness,

Voice of joy, etrnal lay:

Alleluia is the anthem

Of the choirs in heavenly day,

Which the angels sing, abiding

In the house of God alway

Alleluia thou resoundest,

Salem, mother ever blest;

alleluias without ending,

Fit yon place of gladsome rest.

Exiles we, by Babel's waters

Sit in bondage and distrest

Alleluia we deserve not

Here to chant for evermore:

Alleluia our transgressions

Make us for awhile give o'er;

For the holy time is coming

Bidding us our sins deplore.

Trinity of endless glory,

Hear thy people as they cry;

Grant to all to keep thy Easter,

In our home beyond the sky,

There to thee our alleluia

Singing everlastingly.
