I Know That My Redeemer Lives

Words and music by Samuel Medley · 1775

Key of D · 88 BPM · 4/4 · Easter,Assurance · Job 19:25

Verse 1

I know that my Redeemer lives — what comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead; he lives, my everliving head.

Verse 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.

Verse 3

He lives triumphant
from the
grave, He lives eternally
to save, He
lives all glorious
in the
sky, He lives exalted there
on high.

Verse 4

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.

Verse 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.
