LyicsBURIED beneath the yielding wave
The great Redeemer lies;
Faith views Him in the wat'ry grave,
And thence beholds Him rise.
With joy we in His footsteps tread,
And would His cause maintain;
Like Him be number'd with the dead,
And with Him rise and reign.
Nor, blest Redeemer, we to Thee
Our grateful voices raise;
Wash'd in the fountain of Thy blood,
Our lives shall be Thy praise.
