lyrics

Verse 1
Dear Savior of a dying world,
Where grief and change must be,
In a new grave where you were laid
My heart lies down with thee

Oh! Not in cold despair of joy,
Or weariness of pain,
But from a hope that shall not die,
To rise and live again.

Verse 2
I would arise in all my strength, My place on earth to fill,
To work out all my time of war With love’s unflinching will;
Firm against every doubt of you, For all my future way
To walk in Heaven’s eternal light Throughout the changing day;

Refrain
Shine, then, Thou Resurrection Light O Shine
Upon our sorrows shine!
Oh, The fullness of Thy joy be ours,
As all our griefs were Thine.
Now, in this changing, dying life of mine,
Our faded hopes comes back to life,
Where all is made new and
We taste of death no more.

Verse 3
I long to see the sacred Earth In new creation rise
To find the germs of Edem, hid Where fallen beauty lies
To feel the spring-tide of a soul By one deep love set free,
Made meet to lay aside her dust, And be at home with Thee

Refrain
All is made new and
We taste of death no more
All is made new
And our Savior’s on the throne
