JESUS triumphant when the storm-clouds break,
And the loud thunder bids the soul awake;
When biting blasts lay earthly projects low,
And one by one the fondest treasures go.
2
Jesus triumphant, through the fleeting years;
Jesus triumphant, spite of blinding tears;
High over all, to hear Thy loving voice,
Which bids the heart look upward and rejoice.
3
Jesus triumphant, when in work for Thee,
Sad and disheartened, no results we see;
When gathered force of evil seems to win,
And work for Christ seems lost in work of sin.
4
Jesus triumphant all along the line;
Triumphant Saviour, all Thy triumph mine;
For since I am a partner in Thy love,
My life on earth is lived through Thee above.
5
Jesus triumphant as I fall asleep,
No fear of death to those whom Thou shalt keep;
Jesus triumphant when the body dies,
And earth in earth, all that is mortal lies.
6
Jesus triumphant when the spirit wings
Upward and heavenward to the King of kings;
And through the last great triumph of Thy grace
Triumphant saints shall see Thee face to face.
