Everlasting glory unto Jesus be! (314)

Everlasting glory unto Jesus be!
Sing aloud the story of His victory!
How He left the splendor of His home on high;
Came in love so tender on the cross to die.

Refrain
Everlasting glory unto Jesus be!
Sing aloud the story of His victory!

We in death were lying, lost in hopeless gloom;
Jesus by His dying, vanquished e’en the tomb!
Burst its iron portal, rolled away the stone,
Rose in life immortal, to the Father’s throne.

Christ the Lord is risen, sing we now today!
Freed are we from prison, Christ our debt did pay!
Sing aloud, and never cease to spread his fame;
Triumph, triumph ever in the Saviour’s name.
