Thine be the glory, risen, conquering
Son,
Endless is the victory thou o’er death
hast won;
Angels in bright raiment rolled the
stone away,
Kept the folded grave-clothes, where
thy body lay.
Thine be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
Endless is the victory
thou o’er death hast won.
Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the
tomb;
Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear
and gloom;
Let the Church with gladness hymns of
triumph sing,
For her Lord now liveth; death hath
lost its sting.
No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince
of Life;
Life is naught without thee: aid us in
our strife;
Make us more than conquerors, through
thy deathless love:
Bring us safe through Jordan to thy
home above.
