when christ was risen from the dead - orlando gibbons lyrics
when christ was risen from the dead
and thomas of the same was told
he would not credit it, he said
though he himself should him behold
till he his wounded hands had eyed
and thrust his fingers in his side
which trial he did undertake
and christ his frailty did permit
by his distrusting sure to make
such others, as might doubt of it:
so we had right, and he no wrong
for by his weakness both are strong
oh, blessèd god, how wise thou art!
and how confoundest thou thy foes!
who their temptations dost convert
to work those ends which they oppose:
when satan seeks our faith to shakе
the firmer he thе same doth make
thus whatsoe’er he tempts us to
his disadvantage let it be;
yea, make those very sins we do
the means to bring us nearer thee:
yet let us not to ill con*sent
though colour’d with a good intent
