EN 4938 O Short Was His Slumber

1Cor.15.55

Versi Version 1

O short was His slumber; He woke from the dust,

The Savior death’s chain could not hold;

And short, since He rose, is the sleep of the just;

They shall wake, and His glory behold.

Dear grave in the garden; hope smiled at its door

Where love’s brightest triumph was told;

Christ lives! and His life will His people restore;

They shall wake, and His glory behold.
