Revelation 5:13: "And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, 'To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!'"
Revelation 7:11-12: "11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying, 'Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.'"
Romans 8:11: "If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you."
Colossians 3:1-12: "1 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. 3 For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
"5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming. 7 In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. 11 Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.
"12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience..."
1 Corinthians 15:57: "But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."

The first verse - particularly the lines "Now all the vault of heav'n resounds" and "Sing, choirs of angels, loud and clear!" - comes from both citations from Revelation.
The verse from Romans appears in the line "Now still He comes to give us life" in the second verse.
The first two lines of the third verse come from Colossians 3, although they're in the opposite order. "O fill us, Lord with dauntless love" seems to be drawn from verse 12, and the next line "Set heart and will on things above" comes from verses 1 and 2.
The line "Christ has triumphed!" appears throughout the hymn, and I think this is what's taken from 1 Corinthians 15:57.
The third line of the third verse ("That we conquer through Your triumph") has some resemblance to Romans 8:37: "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."
The fourth line of the third verse ("Grant grace sufficient for life's day") seems to draw from 2 Corinthians 12:9: "But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
