BY Jesus' grave on either hand,
While night is brooding o'er the land.
The sad and silent mourners stand.

2 At last the weary life is o'er,
The agony and conflict sore
Of him who all our sufferings bore.

3 Deep in the rock's sepulchral shade
The Lord, by whom the world was made,
The Saviour of mankind, is laid

4. O hearts bereaved and sore distrest,
Here is for you a place of rest;
Here leave your griefs on Jesus’ breast.

EASTER

625 The strife is o’er, the battle done.
626 Ye sons and daughters of the King.
627 The Lord is risen indeed.
