16105. I Know That My Redeemer Lives

1 I know that my Re­deem­er lives,
The Lord of li­ber­ty;
I trust the pledge of life He gives
For all eter­ni­ty.

2 O Lord, I would that I might live
A fear­less life and free;
Rich in the joy that Thou dost give,
Now and eter­nal­ly.

3 O Lord, I would live straight and strong
In bo­dy, soul, and mind;
Unbound by ha­bits that are wrong;
Joyous, and true, and kind.

4 O Lord, my God, I would love Thee
With all my strength, each day;
And in Thy Son, my Sav­ior see
The Life, the Truth, the Way.

5 I trust the pledge of life He gives—
Eternal, full, and free;
I know that my Re­deem­er lives,
And shares His life with me.
