Glory to Jesus! risen, conquering Son
[Modernised Version]1 Glory to Jesus! risen, conquering Son;
endless is the victory over death you won;
angels robed in splendour rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave clothes where your body lay:
Glory to Jesus! risen conquering Son:
endless is the victory over death you won.
2 See 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 is living, death has lost its sting:
Glory to Jesus! risen conquering Son:
endless is the victory over death you won.
3 No more we doubt you, glorious prince of life:
what is life without you? aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors through your deathless love,
bring us safe through Jordan to your home above:
Glory to Jesus! risen conquering Son:
endless is the victory over death you won.
