Text: | I know that my redeemer lives |
Author (Verses): | Samuel Medley (1738-99) |
1 I know that my redeemer lives,
What joy the blest assurance gives!
He lives triumphant o’er the grave,
He lives omnipotent to save.
Refrain:
And above the rest this note shall swell,
My Jesus hath done all things well.
2 He lives to bless me with his love,
He lives to plead my cause above,
He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears.
3 He lives, my wise and constant friend,
He lives and loves me to the end,
He lives my mansion to prepare,
He lives to guide me safely there.
4 He lives, all glory to his name,
He lives, eternally the same;
What joy the sweet assurance gives
That Jesus, my redeemer, lives!
