I know that my Redeemer lives
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead
He lives, my ever living Head
He lives to bless me with His love
He lives to plead for me above
He lives my hungry soul to feed
He lives to help in time of need
He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend
He lives and loves me to the end
He lives, and while He lives, I’ll sing
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King
He lives and grants me daily breath
He lives, and I shall conquer death
He lives my mansion to prepare
He lives to bring me safely there
He lives, all glory to His Name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives
I know that my Redeemer lives!

Alternate verses:
He lives triumphant from the grave
He lives eternally to save
He lives all glorious in the sky
He lives exalted there on high
He lives to grant me rich supply
He lives to guide me with His eye
He lives to comfort me when faint
He lives to hear my soul’s complaint
He lives to silence all my fears
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart
He lives all blessings to impart
