The Saviour lives, no more to die
138
L.M.
1 The Saviour lives, no more to die;
He lives our Head, enthroned on high;
He lives triumphant o’er the grave;
He lives eternally to save.
2 He lives to still His people’s fears;
He lives to wipe away their tears;
He lives their mansions to prepare;
He lives to bring them safely there.
3 He lives to bless us with His love;
He lives to plead for us above;
He lives to guide us with His eye;
He lives to grant us rich supply.
4 Then let our souls in Him rejoice,
And sing His praise with cheerful voice;
Our doubts and fears for ever gone,
For Christ is on the Father’s throne.
5 The chief of sinners He receives;
His saints He loves, and never leaves;
He’ll guard us safe from every ill,
And all His promises fulfil.
6 Abundant grace will He afford,
Till we are present with the Lord;
And prove what we have sung before,
That Jesus lives for evermore.
