THINE IS THE GLORY

Original Text: Chants Evan­gél­iques, Lau­sanne, Swit­zer­land, 1885
Music: G.F. Handel, "See, the Conquering Hero Comes" (Judas Maccabaeus, 1747)


Thine is the glory, risen, conqu’ring Son;
Endless is the vict'ry, Thou o’er death hast won;
Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
Kept the folded grave clothes where Thy body lay.

[Refrain]

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]

No more we doubt Thee, glorious Prince of life;
Life is naught 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]
Thine is the glory, risen conqu’ring Son,
Endless is the vict’ry, Thou o’er death hast won.
