683. I know that my Redeemer lives! What comfort this sweet sentence gives!

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.

2 He lives, to bless me with his love;
He lives, to bleed for me above;
He lives, my hungry soul to feed;
He lives, to help in time of need.

3 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;
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!
