Verse 1
Why should believers droop?
The Father of our Lord
Again hath rais’d him up,
The dead to life restor’d:
Jesus his mortal pangs are o’re,
He lives, he lives, to die no more!
Verse 2
It was not possible
That Hades should hold fast
The God who saves from hell,
And death destroys at last;
Long in the grave He could not lie,
Or Life himself forever die.
