Lyics

O LORD, we in thy footsteps tread,

With joy thy cause maintain;

Like Jesus number'd with the dead,

Like him we rise and reign.



Down to the hallow'd grave we go,

Obedient to thy word;

'Tis thus the world around shall know

We're buried with the Lord.



'Tis thus we bid its pomps adieu,

And boldly venture in:

O may we rise to live anew,

And only die to sin.
