My faith shall triumph o’er the grave,
And trample on the tomb;
I know that my Redeemer lives,
And on the clouds shall come.
I know that he shall soon appear
In power and glory meet;
And death, the last of all his foes,
Lie vanquished at his feet.
Then though the grave my ?esh devour
And hold me to its prey,
I know my sleeping dust shall rise
On the last judgment-day.
I, in my flesh, shall see my God,
When he on earth shall stand;
I shall with all his saints ascend
To dwell at his right hand.
Then shall he wipe all tears away,
And hush the rising groan;
And pains and sighs and griefs and fears
Shall ever be unknown.
