1 I know that my Redeemer lives, glory, hallelujah!
What comfort this sweet sentence gives, glory, hallelujah!

Refrain:
Shout on, pray on, we’re gaining ground, glory, hallelujah!
The dead’s alive and the lost is found, glory, hallelujah!

2 He lives to crush the pow’rs of hell, glory, hallelujah!
He lives, within my heart to dwell, glory, hallelujah! [Refrain]

3 He lives, my hungry soul to feed, glory, hallelujah!
He lives to help in time of need, glory, hallelujah! [Refrain]

4 He lives, all glory to his name, glory, hallelujah!
He lives, my Savior, still the same, glory, hallelujah! [Refrain]

5 He lives, triumphant from the grave;
he lives, eternally to save! [Refrain]

6 He lives to heal and make me whole;
he lives to guard my troubled soul. [Refrain]

7 He lives, and grants me daily breath;
he lives and I shall conquer death! [Refrain]
