Death cannot hold the resurrection life
The life of God eternal manifest;
’Tis uncreated
indestructible
’Tis Christ Himself
unconqu’rable
expressed.
Though all its force against it may combine;
Death only gives it opportunity
To show the boundless pow’r of life divine.
The more interred
the more it multiplies;
All kinds of suff’ring only help it grow
And fruits of life abundant realize.
Thru every block and barrier it breaks;
Conqu’ring the pow’r of darkness and of hell
It swallows death and victory partakes.
All of God’s fulness it will manifest;
God’s righteousness and holiness it yields
His glorious image by it is expressed.
Oh
may I know this resurrection life
In every kind of death its pow’r outpoured
In my experience ever realize
This life is nought but Christ my living Lord.
