459. Come and see where Jesus lay

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith

Come and see where Jesus lay,
cold within the silent cave.
See, the stone is rolled away,
void and tenantless the grave:
clothes to shroud his form and head
still their absent Lord display;
Christ is risen from the dead!
Come and see where Jesus lay.

2. Go and tell that Jesus reigns!
Sin and death are overthrown.
Dead to sin and all its pains,
live to make his glories known.
Raised in triumph, as he said,
he who all the world sustains,
Christ is risen from the dead!
Go and tell that Jesus reigns!
