Representative Text

His members to raise, has ris'n from the dead!
The pow'r of His Spirit hath quicken'd our Lord,
that we by His merit may all be restored.

2 Our Captain and King, with shouts we proclaim,

3 The pow'r of His rise we know and declare,
and rapt to the skies, His happiness share.
In heavenly places with Jesus we sit,
and Jesus’s praises with angels repeat.

4 We sing of His love while sojourning here,
till Christ from above, our Savior appear.
The heirs of salvation with triumph receive,
in full consummation of glory to live.
