Jesus Lives

Jesus lives! thy terrors now

Can, O death, no more appal us;

Jesus lives! by this we know,

Thou, O grave, canst not enthral us.

Hallelujah!

Jesus lives! henceforth is death

But the gate of life immortal;

This shall calm our trembling breath,

When we pass its gloomy portal.

Hallelujah!

Jesus lives! for us He died;

Then, alone to Jesus living,

Pure in heart may we abide,

Glory to our Saviour giving.

Hallelujah!

Jesus lives! our hearts know well,

Naught from us His love shall sever;

Life, nor death, nor powers of hell,

Tear us from His keeping ever.

Hallelujah!

Jesus lives! to Him the throne

Over all the world is given:

May we go where He is gone,

Rest and reign with Him in heaven.

Hallelujah!
