Jésus Sort De La Tombe

Representative Text

1 Jésus sort de la tombe,
Il est ressuscité,
Et devant lui succombent
Les forces du péché.

2 Où donc est ta victoire,
Puissance de la mort?
Voici le roi de gloire,
Jésus, vivant et fort.

3 La nuit couvrait la terre,
Voici le jour nouveau!
La vie et la lumière
Triomphent du tombeau.

4 Chantons la délivrance,
L’aurore du salut,
La croix, notre espérance,
Et le tombeau vaincu!

5 Jésus, dans ta parole
Tu vis pour notre foi.
Ton Saint-Esprit console
Celui qui le reçoit.

6 Louange au roi de gloire
Qui nous appelle à lui,
Sauvés par sa victoire,
Vainceurs dès aujourd’hui!
