Darkness now no more shall reign; Thorns no more shall crown the head That was bowed with grief and pain: Christ, the Lord, the mighty King, From our sin has made us free,-- Where, O death, is now thy sting? Where, O grave, thy victory? 2 Scoffers now no more will say: If Thou be the Christ, come down From the cross, and prove today That to Thee belongs the crown! For our risen Lord and King From our sins hath made us free,-- Where, O death, is now thy sting? Where, O grave, thy victory? 3 Faith now knows He is the Lord, Gives assent to His decree, Trusts the promise in His Word And is crowned with victory, Shouting praises to the King, Who from sin hath made us free,-- Where, O death, is now thy sting? Where, O grave, thy victory? Amen. Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE

Christ Jesus, it is He; Lord Sabaoth, His name, From age to age the same, And He must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us: The Prince of Darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo, his doom is sure; One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth: Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still; His kingdom is forever.
