Thine Be the Glory: a hymn which will sound familiar to anyone who knows his or her Handel

I had to post this one too because it was such a wonderful rendition of this hymn. The words are rather difficult to hear, so I'll provide the text: Thine Be the Glory originally written by the Swiss poet Edmund Budri in 1904, translated into English by Richard Burch Hoyle: Music: the Heroes' Chorus from Handel's Judas Maccabeus

1 Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won! Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away, kept the folded grave-clothes where thy body lay. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won!

2 Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb! Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom; let his church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing, for the Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting! Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won!

3 No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life; life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife; make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love; bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above. [Refrain] Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won! #brass #church #Easter #hymns #music #religious
