Hymn 398 — Thy death and resurrection, Lord,
| 398 | J. N. GRACE | L.M. |
| 1 |
Thy death and resurrection, Lord, (How faith rejoices in the word!) Have met the charge that on us lay, And taken all death's sting away. | |
| 2 |
Soon all the saints who through Thee sleep, Th'appointment in the air will keep, When, rising from Thy Father's throne, Thou comest forth to claim Thine own. | |
| 3 |
Thy voice the realm of death shall burst, The dead in Christ arising first; And, in a moment, we who live The Spirit's quick'ning change receive. | |
| 4 |
Together then, the church will be Complete in one vast company! Caught up to meet Thee, blessed Lord, Where Thou shalt ever be adored. | |
| 5 |
And now in faith and hope and love, We wait to greet Thee from above; Each heart sustained in power and grace, Until we see Thee face to face. | |
