Profitable Persuals

Tune: Savannah

('Loves' redeeming work is done')

1 Corinthians 15 v.54-58

********

Death swallowed in victory

At last day fulfilled shall be

Thean saying, O death, where be

Your sting? Grave, where victory?

 

Sin it be of death the sting

Law, strength to sin it does bring

But thanks to God, who does give

Us the victory, we live

 

Through our Lord Jesus, it be

The victory, He Christ, see

Messiah, the Promised One

Here salvation in the Son

 

Therefore we may be steadfast

Unmoveable, deeds shall last

Abounding in the work sure

Of the Lord, profit e'ermore

 

For we know that our labour

In the Lord, we do concur

That in Him it not vain be

Has value eternally
