I go from grief and sighing - The victory of the Lamb
(Johann Heermann/Frances Bevan/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)

The victory of the Lamb.

"If we suffer, we shall also reign with him." (2 Timothy 2,12)

1. I go from grief and sighing, the valley and the clod,
  to join the chosen people in the palaces of God –
there sounds no cry of battle amidst the shadowing palms,
  but the mighty song of victory, and glorious golden psalms. (PDF - Midi)

2. The army of the conquerors, a palm in every hand,
  in robes of state and splendour, in rest eternal stand;
those marriage robes of glory, the righteousness of God –
  he bought them for his people with his most precious Blood.

3. The Lamb of God has saved them from Hell's deep sea of fire –
  the Lamb of God adorns them in spotless white attire;
the Lamb of God presents them as Kings in crowns of light –
  as Priests in God's own temple to serve him day and night.

4. Salvation, strength, and wisdom to him whose works and ways
  are wonderful and glorious – eternal is his praise:
the Lamb who died and liveth, alive for evermore,
  the Saviour who redeemed us, for ever we adore.

Frances Bevan, Hymns of Ter Steegen and others 2, 1899, 82-83. After Johann Heermann.
