Hymns for a Pilgrim People ‎#203

203. Thine Is the Glory

1 Thine is the glory,
Risen, conqu'ring Son;
Endless is the vict'ry
Thou o'er death hath won.
Angels in bright raiment
Rolled the stone away,
Kept the folded grave clothes
Where Thy body lay.

Refrain:
Thine is the glory,
Risen, conqu'ring Son;
Endless is the vict'ry
Thou o'er death hast won.

2 Lo! Jesus meets thee,
Risen from the tomb;
Lovingly He greets thee,
Scatters fear and gloom;
Let His 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 nought without Thee;
Aid us in our strife;
Make us more than conqu'rors,
Through Thy deathless love;
Bring us safe through Jordan
To Thy home above. [Refrain]
