I Know That My Redeemer Lives

1. I know that my Redeemer lives, What comfort this sweet sentence gives! He lives, he lives, who once was dead; He lives, my ever living head! He lives to bless me with his love; He lives to plead for me above; He lives my hungry soul to feed; He lives to bless in time of need.

2. He lives to grant me rich supply; He lives to guide me with his eye; He lives to comfort me when faint; He lives to hear my soul’s complaint. He lives to silence all my fears; He lives to wipe away my tears; He lives to calm my troubled heart; He lives all blessings to impart.

3. He lives, my kind, wise, heav’nly friend; He lives and loves me to the end; He lives and while he lives I’ll sing. He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King. He lives and grants me daily breath; He lives, and I shall conquer death; He lives my mansion to prepare; He lives to bring me safely there.

4. He lives, all glory to his name! He lives, my Jesus, still the same; O sweet the joy this sentence gives: “I know that my Redeemer lives.” He lives, all glory to his name! He lives, my Jesus, still the same; O sweet the joy this sentence gives: “I know that my Redeemer lives!”
