And Are We Yet Alive

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 219 hymnals Scripture: Luke 12:48 Lyrics: 1 And are we yet alive, And see each other's face? Glory and praise to Jesus give For His redeeming grace. 2 Preserved by power divine To full salvation here, Again in Jesus' praise we join, And in His sight appear. 3 What troubles have we seen, What conflicts have we passed, Fightings without, and fears within, Since we assembled last. 4 But out of all the Lord Hath brought us by His love; And still He doth His help afford, And hides our life above. 5 Then let us make our boast Of His redeeming power, Which saves us to the uttermost, Till we can sin no more. 6 Let us take up the cross Till we the crown obtain; And gladly reckon all things loss, So we may Jesus gain.
