Text: | I know that my Redeemer lives |
Author: | Charles Wesley |
Tune: | BRADFORD |
Composer: | George F. Handel |
1 I know that my Redeemer lives,
And ever prays for me;
A token of his love he gives,
A pledge of liberty.
2 Jesus, I hang upon thy word;
I steadfastly believe
Thou wilt return, and claim me, Lord,
And to thyself receive.
3 Joyful in hope, my spirit soars
To meet thee from above;
Thy goodness thankfully adores,
And tastes thy precious love.
4 When God is mine and I am his,
Of paradise possessed,
I taste unutterable bliss,
And everlasting rest.
