To Conquer Death Lyrics

Born to bless us, born to save!
Praise His name with joyful breath!
Sing through life, nor fear the grave!
Jesus lives to conquer death!

Every birth is changed from hence
Each may take a pathway bright
Reaching soon the tomb, but thence
Issuing in unfading light

We fly on wings of hope!
To conquer death!

Humblest cradles now shall show
Clearly show to loving eyes
Oft while tears of rapture flow
Flowerets born for Paradise

Parents now shall sink to rest
Hoping soon to clasp in Heaven
Lovely as a seraph blest
Every child whom God hath given

Parents, children, young and old
If but strong in faith and love
Shall, with gratitude untold
Oft foretaste the joys above

We fly on wings of hope!
To conquer death!

Lowly Babe of Bethlehem!
Glorious Lord of life and light!
Humble branch of Jesse's stem!
God! Thy grace is infinite

We fly on wings of hope!
To conquer death!
