Christ’s Resurrection. Matt. 28. 6; Eph. 1. 20-22
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,
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.
