Thine Be the Glory

Words: Edmond Budry, Richard Burch Hoyle · Music: George Frideric Handel · 1884

Verse 1
Thine be 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
Thine be the glory,
risen, conqu'ring Son;
endless is the vict'ry
thou o'er death hast won!

Verse 2
Lo! Jesus meets us,
risen from the tomb.
Lovingly he greets us,
scatters fear and gloom;
let his church with gladness
hymns of triumph sing,
for her Lord now liveth;
death hath lost its sting.

Verse 3
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.
