And short the do- min-ion of death and the grave; He burst from the fetters of tears were our birth-right,and death were our end; But Jesus hath cheer'd the dark If dark-ness that bound Him, Re-splen - dent in glo ry, to live and to save; Loud was the valley of sor - row, And bade us, im - mor- tal, to heaven ascend: Lift then your chorus of angels on high, voices in tri-umph on high, The Sav-iour hath ris - en, and man shall not die. |
