about

"I Know That My Redeemer Lives" was written in 1775. The first version I ever heard of this, was by Bob Bennett with acoustic guitar. I used piano, harpsichord & pipe organ.

lyrics

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 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.

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!
