When Christ victorious from the grave
Ascended up on high,
To all his saints a pledge he gave,
That they should never die.
United to their risen Lord
By true and living faith;
He doth to them the grace afford
To persevere till death.
Though for a time they sleep in dust,
Each resting in his bed,
Soon the Archangel’s trumpet must
Re-call them from the dead.
And though the bliss be undeserved,
For them, upon that day,
A crown of glory is reserved,
That fadeth not away.
