1 Jesus lives, and so shall I.
The sting of death is gone forever.
Jesus lives–the One who died
the bands of death to sever.
God has raised me from the dust:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
2 Jesus lives! My soul revived
when Jesus called. I was awakened
from my sleep to glorious light;
the shroud of death He's shaken.
From the grave God raised me up:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
3 Jesus lives! New life begins
within this heart so long in slavery.
From the crushing weight of sin,
God's arm reached down and saved me.
Each new day brings grace enough:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
Bridge
Awake, my soul. Awake, my soul.
Your Savior calls–calls you to rise with him this dawn,
calls you to life within God's love:
4 Jesus lives, andnothing now
can separate me from my Svaior.
Earthly pain nor Satan's power
could cause his love to waver.
Those he's found are never lost:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
