I Know That my Redeemer Lives
1. I know that my Redeemer lives,
and ever prays for me;
a token of his love he gives,
a pledge of liberty.
2. I find him lifting up my head;
he brings salvation near;
his presence makes me free indeed
and he will soon appear.
3. He wills that I should holy be:
who can withstand his will?
The counsel of his grace in me
he surely shall fulfil.
4. Jesus, I hang upon your Word:
I steadfastly believe
you will return and claim me, Lord,
and to yourself receive.
I know that My Redeemer Lives(Samuel Medley)
1. I know that my Redeemer lives;
what comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my everlasting Head.
2. He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all-glorious in the sky,v
He lives exalted there on high.
3. 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.
4. He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He live to hear my soul’s complaint.
5. 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.
6. He lives, my kind, wise, heav’nly 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.
7. 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.
8. 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!”
I Know that My Redeemer Liveth
1. I know that my Redeemer liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand;
I know eternal life He giveth,
That grace and power are in His hand.
Chorus:
I know, I know that Jesus liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand;
I know, I know that life He giveth,
That grace and power are in His hand.
2. I know His promise never faileth,
The word He speaks, it cannot die;
Tho’ cruel death my flesh assaileth,
Yet I shall see Him by and by.
3. I know my mansion He prepareth,
That where He is there I may be;
Oh, wondrous thought, for me He careth,
And He at last will come for me.
I know whom I have believed
I know not why God’s wondrous grace to me he hath
made known, nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
redeemed me for his own.
Refrain
But I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able
to keep that which I’ve committed unto him against that day.
I know not how this saving faith to me he did impart,
nor how believing in his word wrought peace within my heart.
I know not how the Spirit moves, convincing us of sin,
revealing Jesus through the word, creating faith in him.
I know not when my Lord may come, at night or noonday fair,
nor if I walk the vale with him, or meet him in the air.
