Author: Miss Frances E. Cox, 1812-1897; C. F. Gellert, 1715-1769 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #131 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives! thy terrors now
Can no longer, death, appal us;
Jesus lives! by this we know
Thou, O grave, canst not enthrall us.
Alleluia!
2 Jesus lives! henceforth is death
But the gate of life immortal;
This shall calm our trembling breath
When we pass its gloomy portal.
Alleluia!
3 Jesus lives! for us He died:
Then, alone to Jesus living,
Pure in heart may we abide,
Glory to our Saviour giving.
Alleluia!
4 Jesus lives! our hearts know well
Nought from us His love shall sever;
Life, nor death, nor powers of hell
Tear us from His keeping ever.
Alleluia!
5 Jesus lives! to Him the throne
Over all the world is given;
May we go where He is gone,
Rest and reign with Him in heaven.
