risen, conquering Son:
endless is the victory
over death you won.
Angels robed in splendour
rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave-clothes
where the body lay.
Refrain:
Yours be the glory,
risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory
over death you won.
2 See! 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 is living;
death hath lost its sting! [Refrain]
3 No more we doubt you,
glorious Prince of life;
what is life without you?
Aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors
through your deathless love;
bring us safe through Jordan
to your home above. [Refrain] Topics: Easter (season) Used With Tune: JUDAS MACCABAEUS Text Sources: Rev. Hymns for Today's Church
Yours Be the Glory, Risen, Conquering Son
