Hymns for Our Lord's Resurrection, 10

O Jesus, our King,
Thy glory we sing,
Thy rising declare,
And join in the pomp, and the benefit share.

Thy conquest we feel
O'er death and o'er hell,
Redeem'd from the grave,
We are bold to proclaim Thee almighty to save.

We know that our Head
Is risen indeed,
Thy record receive,
And raised by the power of Thy Spirit we live.

Thy Spirit attests
The truth in our breasts,
Thy Witness imparts
The first resurrection of faith to our hearts.

Thou hast conquer'd beneath
The sharpness of death,
Our souls to retrieve,
And open the kingdom to all that believe.

Relieving on Thee
We rise from the tree,
And heavenward move,
And fly to Thy throne on the wings of Thy love.

Thy love that o'ercame
Our sorrow and shame,
And ransom'd our race,
And sent Thee to God to prepare us a place;

Follow after, it cries,
To your place in the skies,
By Immanuel led,
Follow after, and suffer, and reign with your Head.
