355. Thine Is the Glory

1 Thine is the glory, Resurrected One!
Endless is the victr’y now for us begun!
Angels clothed in glory rolled the stone away,
leaving only graveclothes where his body lay.

Refrain:
Thine is the glory, Resurrected One!
Endless is the victr'y now for us begun!

2 Lo! Jesus meets us. Risen from the tomb,
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom.
Let our doubting spirits find a voice to sing:
Christ who died is living; death has lost its sting. [Refrain]

3 Thine was the suff’ring, mine the endless life.
Sin holds no dominion; love wins over strife.
What then shall I shall I offer? Songs that never cease!
Thou hast won the vict’ry, glorious Prince of Peace! [Refrain]
