""The Strife is O'er, the Battle Done" is a Christian hymn that is traditionally sung at Easter to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus. It was originally a 17th-century Latin hymn, "Finita iam sunt proelia"; the popular English-language version is an 1861 translation by the English hymnwriter Francis Pott. Text The text of the hymn extols the triumphant Christ whose victory over death and Hell is described as a battle, as related in the Harrowing of Hell. The hymn also makes reference to Christ breaking the chains of hell and to Christ in Majesty. Each verse concludes with an Alleluya! refrain. The strife is o'er, the battle done; Now is the Victor's triumph won; O let the song of praise be sung. Alleluya! Death's mightiest powers have done their worst, And Jesus hath his foes dispersed; Let shouts of praise and joy outburst. Alleluya! On the third morn he rose again Glorious in majesty to reign; O let us swell the joyful strain. Alleluya! He brake the age-bound chains of hell; The bars from heaven's high portals fell; Let hymns of praise his triumph tell. Alleluya! Lord, by the stripes which wounded thee From death's dread sting thy servants free, That we may live, and sing to thee. Alleluya! Tune "The strife is o'er" has a metre of 8.8.8 with Alleluya, and is it commonly sung to one of two hymn tunes. The most common is the tune , adapted from a 1591 setting of the Gloria Patri by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina from a Magnificat tertii toni. The additional Alleluya refrain was set to music by William Henry Monk. << << ew Staff { \clef treble \time 3/2 \key d \major \set Staff.midiInstrument = "church organ" \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t \override Score.BarNumber #'transparent = ##t \relative c << { a2 a a b1 a2 a( g) fis a1. \bar"" fis2 fis fis fis1 fis2 fis( e) d e1. \bar"" \break a2 a a b1 a2 a( g) fis a1. \bar"" r2 a2 d cis1. d1. \bar"." } \\\ { fis,2 fis fis g1 fis2 fis( b,) d e1. d2 d d d1 d2 d( b) b cis1. cis2 fis fis g1 fis2 fis( b,) d e1. r2 d2 fis e1. fis1. } >> } ew Lyrics \lyricmode { The2 strife is o'er,1 the2 ba1 -- ttle2 done;1.
