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