Tune: St George's, Windsor
('Come, ye thankful people, come')
1 Corinthians Chapter 15 part
********
Resurrection hope we share
By God's grace, it true and fair
For since by man, by Adam
Death to all humans did come
But by Jesus, a man too
Came the resurrection new
All in Him shall all be made
Alive, His life price has paid
Christ died for our sins, He paid
The price, atonement He made
And was buried, rose again
On the third day was viewed then
All in accord with Scriptures
Not in fantasy ventures
But in truth, historically
Full human, full divine He
So not vain our faith, our hope
Not in darkness do we grope
For light of life, He has shone
Sins be forgiven and gone
Holding to Christ through our life
In joys, sorrows, calm, and strife
Raised with Him we sure shall be
And shall Him eternal see
Gathered in souls harvest we
Shall know liberty and see
Christ has made for us a way
Unto everlasting day
It shall come to pass, saying
Where grave's victory, where death's sting?
Death swallowed up, victory
From sin's sting, curse, we made free
