To thy tomb O Lord,

In trials and tribulations,

With burden we could cope.

Would his inspired letters

To this generation last?

Would she now be in heaven –

Would she have won the race?

Our Lord set an example,

Fight, strive, persevere and

On us will be no blame.

If our loving Saviour
Am
Had not endured all pain,

Would Redemption and Salvation

Ever be our gain?

I come now with hope

To Thy Tomb O Lord,
D7

I come expecting life;

Knowing that through Thee

I can endure all strife.
