Jesus from the tomb has come

Jesus from the tomb has come, Death to Him could do no harm; Comforted let us remain, And together praise His name. Now redemption’s work is done, All His foes He’s overcome. Once for all our sins He bore, Now He’ll suffer nevermore. |

Hades, boulder, soldiers ’round, None could harm or hold Him down; Though He briefly suffered pain, I eternal blessing gain. He Who died must die no more, Satan’s scheming days are o’er; Empty tomb is all we see, Soon all graves shall empty be. |

From the grain of wheat that died, Many grains were multiplied; He no more alone abides, All the church is at His side. As His Body, with our Head, To the heavens we ascend; With Him buried, with Him soar, Praise His name forevermore. |

Delighted to see and sing this hymn in English! Always thought this was a Chinese original, but not anymore.
"Empty tomb is what we see,
Soon all graves shall empty be." - what a simple yet powerful declaration of the Christian faith and the Christian hope of resurrection at the Lord's return! Would like to know the author of this hymn.
