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 silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears,
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives, all blessings to impart,
He lives, all blessings to impart.

And he lives to grant me daily breath,
He lives, and I shall conquer death,
He lives, and while I live I'll sing,
He lives, my prophet, priest and king.

He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives, eternally to save,
And what joy this blessed assurance gives,
I know that my redeemer lives,
I know that my redeemer lives.
