The Savior Died, but Rose Again

lyricist: Scottish Paraphrases, 1781
Composer: Thomas Est, 1592

The Sav­ior died

but rose again

Triumphant from the grave;

And pleads our cause at God’s right hand

Omnipotent to save.

Who

then

can e’er di­vide us more

From Je­sus and His love;

Or break the sac­red chain that binds

The earth to Heav’n above?

Let trou­bles rise

and ter­rors frown

And days of dark­ness fall;

Through Him all dan­gers we’ll de­fy

And more than con­quer all.

Nor death

nor life

nor earth nor hell

Nor time’s de­stroy­ing sway

Can e’er ef­face us from His heart

Or make His love de­cay.
