Carols of Hope ‎#186

186. He Liveth

1. How sinless the life of sorrow and strife
Which Jesus once lived among men!
What fellowship sweet, what rapture complete
Of those who adored him then!

Chorus:
He liveth, he liveth, our Teacher and Friend,
In all who his precepts obey;
His love is the same even unto the end,
And Jesus is with us today.

2. The Mighty to save, whose voice clam'd the wave
And quelled the tempestuous sea,
In sorrow and need gave succor indeed
And made Satan's captives free. [Chorus]

3. Thou Friend of mankind, give sight to the blind,
O quicken the lifeless in sin;
Rebuke all our foes and heal all our woes
And grant us thy peace within. [Chorus]
