Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary ‎#73

73. Thine Is the Glory

1 Thine is the glory,
Risen, conqu'ring Son;
Endless is the vict'ry
Thou o’er death hast won!
Angels in bright raiment
Rolled the stone away,
Kept the folded grave clothes
Where Thy body lay.

Refrain:
Thine is the glory,
Risen, conqu'ring Son;
Endless is the vict'ry
Thou o’er death hast won!

2 Lo Jesus meets thee,
Risen from the tomb!
Lovingly He greets thee,
Scatters fear and gloom;
Let His church with gladness,
Hymns of triumph sing,
For the Lord now liveth;
Death hath lost its sting! (Refrain)

3 Faith's hand doth touch Thee,
Glorious Prince of life;
Life is naught without Thee;
Aid us in our strife;
Make us more than conqu'rors,
Through Thy deathless love;
Bring us through death's portals
To Thy home above. (Refrain)
