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] Used With Tune: JUDAS MACCABAEUS

Speed Thy Servants, Saviour, Speed Them

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 79 hymnals Topics: Commissioning of Missionaries Lyrics: 1 Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them, Ruler of the winds and waves, They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves. Be Thou with them, be Thou with them, 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves. 2 Friends, and home, and all forsaking, Lord, they go at Thy command, As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: O be with them, O be with them, Lead them safely by the hand. 3 When no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain, Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain. Thus supported, Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again. 4 In the midst of opposition Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attends their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be; Never leave them, Never leave them, Till Thy face in heaven they see: Amen.
