| 72 JESUS lives! no longer now Can thy terrors, Death, appal us. Jesus lives! by this we know Thou, 0 Grave, canst not enthral us. Jesus lives! henceforth is death BUT A SLEEP WITH GLORIOUS WAKING This shall calm our trembling breath In the hour of last leave taking. Jesus lives! for us He died, THEN REVIVED AND ROSE TO HEAVEN Now in safety we abide, Free from fear, nor tempest driven. Jesus lives! we have His pledge Naught from us His love shall sever. Height nor depth, nor sword's sharp edge, Tears us from His keeping ever. Jesus lives! THE THRONE TO HIM OVER ALL THE EARTH 15 GIVEN 0, WHAT JOY FOR US TO WIN LIFE TO SERVE THIS KING FROM HEAVEN! |
