My Redeemer Lives

I know that my redeemer lives

What comfort that sentence gives

He lives, He lives, who once was dead

He lives, my Ever Living Head

 

He lives triumphant from the grave

He lives eternally to save

He lives my mansion to prepare

He lives to lead me safely there

 

He lives and grants me daily breath

He lives and I shall conquer death

He lives and while He lives I’ll sing

He lives my Prophet, Priest and King

 

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.

 

My Shepherd Will Supply My Need

 

My shepherd will supply my need:

Jehovah is His name;

In pastures fresh He makes me feed,

Beside the living stream.

He brings my wandering spirit back

When I forsake His ways,

And leads me, for His mercy’s sake,

In paths of truth and grace.

When I walk through the shades of death

His presence is my stay;

One word of His supporting grace

Drives all my fears away.

His hand, in sight of all my foes,

Doth still my table spread;

My cup with blessings overflows,

His oil anoints my head.

 

The sure provisions of my God

Attend me all my days;

O may Thy house be my abode,

And all my work be praise.

There would I find a settled rest,

While others go and come;

No more a stranger nor a guest,

But like a child at home.
