Author: Richard Birch Hoyle, 1875-1939; Edmond Louis Budry, 1854-1932 Hymnal: Together in Song #380 (1999) Meter: 10.11.11.11 with refrain Lyrics: 1 Yours be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory over death you've won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave-clothes, where your body lay.
Refrain:
Yours be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory over death you've won.
2 See, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,
for the Lord is living, death has lost its sting. [Refrain]
3 No more we doubt you, glorious Prince of life;
life is naught without you: aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors through your deathless love;
bring us safe through Jordan to your home above. [Refrain]
