Thine Is the Glory

Edmond Budry (1904) • Richard Birch Hoyle • English

Primary Scripture: Joshua 3:9-17

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.

Chorus

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 the Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting.

Chorus

Thine be the glory, risen, conqu'ring Son; endless is the vict'ry Thou o’er death hast won.

Verse 3

No more we doubt Thee, glorious Prince of life!! Life is nought 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.

Chorus

Thine be the glory, risen, conqu'ring Son; endless is the vict'ry Thou o’er death hast won.
