This is the threefold truth
On
which our faith depends;
And
with this joyful cry
Worship
begins and ends;
Refrain
Christ
has died!
Christ
is risen!
Christ
will come again!
2
By
this we are upheld
When
doubt and grief assails
Our
Christian fortitude,
And
only grace avails.
3
This
is the threefold truth
Which,
if we hold it fast,
Changes
the world and us
And
brings us home at last.
