1. We welcome now our Saviour,
Who lay in calm repose,
For over death he triumphed
And from the grave He rose.
2. O Lord, Thou hast now conquered
That strong and crafty foe;
This giveth faith and comfort,
For God is with us now!
3. The peace, which Thou hast brought us,
All fear has put to flight;
The righteous now in chorus
Are singing with delight!
4. May we with consolation,
Thy trophies with Thee share.
O, that this great salvation,
Extend here ev’rywhere!
5. Our sins have all been buried
There in the grave with Thee.
Oh, what a blessed comfort;
We fear no enemy!
6. Lord, for this great salvation
Be Thou forever praised,
That after life’s temptations
To heaven we’ll be raised.
7. We shall without despairing
Go with Thee to the grave,
And we Thy face beholding,
May be forever safe.
8. Extend Thy banner o’er us,
And guide us to the goal!
Beyond the grave and darkness
To heaven lead our souls.
9. What is there now to harm us?
Of death we have no fear;
We have in our Lord Jesus
Found grace and mercy here!
Who lay in calm repose,
For over death he triumphed
And from the grave He rose.
2. O Lord, Thou hast now conquered
