Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son
Author: Edmond Budry, 1854-1932; Richard Hoyle, 1875-1939 Meter: 10.11.11.11 with refrain Appears in 109 hymnals Scripture: Joshua 3:14-17 Lyrics: 1 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.
Refrain:
Thine be 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 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 conquerors through thy deathless love;
bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above: [Refrain] Topics: Easter; Easter Day Year A; Easter II Year B; Easter III Year C Used With Tune: MACCABÆUS Text Sources: French, 19th century

There is a land of pure delight
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,399 hymnals Scripture: Joshua 3:14-17 Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign;
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
and never-withering flowers;
death, like a narrow sea, divides
that heavenly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green;
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.
4 But timorous mortals start and shrink
to cross the narrow sea,
and linger shivering on the brink,
and fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy doubts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore!

ne'er burst his three-day prison,
our faith had been in vain:
but now hath Christ arisen,
arisen, arisen, arisen.
2 My flesh in hope shall rest,
and for a season slumber;
till trump from east to west
shall wake the dead in number. [Refrain]

my passing soul deliver. [Refrain] Topics: Easter; Year A Easter 2; Years A, B, and C Easter Vigil Used With Tune: THIS JOYFUL EASTERTIDE (VREUCHTEN)
