I Know That My Redeemer Lives (Wesley)

I know that my Re­deem­er lives

He lives

and on the earth shall stand

And tho’ to worms my flesh He gives

My dust lies num­bered in His hand.

In this re­ani­mat­ed clay

I sure­ly shall be­hold Him near;

Shall see Him at the lat­ter day

In all His ma­jes­ty ap­pear.

I feel what then shall raise me up

Th’eter­nal Spir­it lives in me

This is my con­fi­dence of hope

That God I face to face shall see.

Mine own and not an­oth­er’s eyes

The King shall in His beau­ty view

I shall from Him re­ceive the prize

The star­ry crown to vic­tors due.
