Stony the road we trod, bitter the chast’ning rod, felt in the days when hope unborn had died; yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet come to the place for which our people sighed? We have come over a way that with tears has been watered. We have come, treading our path thro’ the blood of the slaughtered, out from the gloomy past, till now we stand at last where the bright gleam of our bright star is cast.
I don't understand why the alto part is lower than the tenor part. I'm a female tenor and when practicing the tenor part along with the alto part the altos were lower than I was.

It's not low..he's just a male singing it in his octave. I'm a first alto and I don't sound as low as he does, but I'm still singing the same notes.
