337. I know that my Redeemer lives

1 I know that my Redeemer lives
What joy the blest assurance gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead:
He lives, my everlasting Head!

2 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.

3 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.

4 He lives, all glory to his name!
He lives, my Saviour, still the same;
What joy the blest assurance gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!
