Hymns for the Living Church ‎#171

171. Thine Is the Glory, Risen, Conquering Son

1 Thine be 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 us,
Risen, from the tomb;
Lovingly He greets us,
Scatters fear and gloom;
Let His church with gladness
Hymns of triumph sing,
For her Lord now liveth;
Death hath lost its sting. (Refrain)

3 No more we doubt 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 safe through Jordan
To Thy home above. (Refrain)
