836. Christ's Resurrection

1 Believer, lift thy drooping head;
Thy Saviour has the victory gained;
See all thy foes in triumph led,
And everlasting life obtained.

2 God from the grave has raised his Son;
The powers of darkness are despoiled;
Justice declares the work is done,
And God and man are reconciled.

3 Lo! the Redeemer leaves the tomb;
See the triumphant Hero rise!
His mighty arms their strength resume,
And conquest sparkles in his eyes.

4 Death his death’s wound has now received;
An end of sin’s entirely made;
Prisoners of hope are quite reprieved,
And all the dreadful debt is paid.
