1. I know that my Redeemer
Lives crowned upon the throne.
Supreme o’er earth and heaven,
He saves, and He alone.
He conquered death by dying
Upon th’accursed tree,
His sacrifice ensuring
Eternal life for me.

2. Christ conquered death by dying—
Jesus, Thy mortal pain
O’erthrew the king of terrors
And broke the captive’s chain.
And though this earthly body
Obey death’s dread behest,
The soul soars free to glory
With saints forever blest.

3. I think upon my Savior;
I trust His pow’r to keep.
His mighty arm enfolds me,
Awaking and in sleep.
Christ is my rock, my courage;
Christ is my soul’s true life;
And He, my heart composing,
Will hold me through the strife.

4. All flesh is like a flower
Unfolding in the glade,
Abloom at dawn’s first breaking,
In beauteous robe arrayed.
But with the wind’s assailing,
The flow’r at once does fade.
So man, his glory fleeting,
Again to dust is made.

5. Thus in Christ’s name I’m living;
Thus in Christ’s name I’ll die.
I’ll dread not death’s dark shadows
That strength and breath deny.
O grave, where is Thy triumph?
O death, where is Thy sting?
“Come, be my guest most welcome!”
Secure in Christ I sing.
