Hymnal and Prayer Book ‎#25

25. Welcome, Thou Victor in the strife

1 Welcome, Thou Victor in the strife,
Welcome from out the cave!
Today we triumph in Thy life
Around Thy empty grave.

2 Our enemy is put to shame,
His short-lived triumph o’er;
Our God is with us, we exclaim,
We fear our foe no more.

3 Oh, let Thy conquering banner wave
O’er hearts Thou makest free;
And point the path that from the grave
Leads heavenward up to Thee.

4 Fearless we lay us in the tomb,
And sleep the night away;
For Thou art there to break the gloom
And call us back to-day.
