Fly, for th'avenger is near thee, Call, and the Savior will hear thee; He on His bosom will bear thee, O thou who art weary of sin, O thou who art weary of sin. 2 He will protect thee forever, Wipe ev'ry falling tear; He will forsake thee, O never, Sheltered so tenderly there. Haste, then, the hours are flying, Spend not the moments in sighing, Cease from your sorrow and crying: The Savior will wipe ev'ry tear, The Savior will wipe ev'ry tear. 3 He is the bountiful Giver, Now unto Him draw near; Peace then shall flow as a river, Thou shalt be saved from thy fear. Hark! 'tis thy Saviour calling, Haste, for the twilight is falling, Flee! for the night is appalling, And thou shalt be saved from thy fear, And thou shalt be saved from thy fear.

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!

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.
