173. Thine is the Glory (À toi la gloire)

1 À toi la gloire,
Ô Ressuscité!
À toi la victoire
pour l’éternité!
Brillant de lumière,
l’ange est descendu,
il roule la pierre
du tombeau vaincu.

[Refrain:]
À toi la gloire,
O Ressuscité!
À toi la victoire
pour l’éternité!

2 Vois-le paraître:
c’est lui, c’est Jésus,
ton Sauveur, ton maître!
Oh! ne doute plus.
Sois dans l’allégresse,
peuple du Seigneur,
et redis sans cesse
que Christ est vainqueur! [Refrain]

3 Craindrais-je encore?
Il vit à jamais,
celui que j’adore,
le prince de paix;
il est ma victoire,
mon puissant soutien,
ma vie et ma gloire:
non, je ne crains rien! [Refrain]

1 Thine is 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 the body lay.

[Refrain:]
Thine is the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
thou o’er death hast won.

2 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 the Lord now liveth:
death hath lost its sting. [Refrain]

3 No more we doubt thee,
glorious Prince of life;
Life is nought 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. [Refrain]
