Hymn 97

I serve a risen Saviour, He’s in the world today

Afred H. Ackley

Verse 1

I serve a risen Saviour, He’s in the world today,

I know that He is living, whatever men may say;

I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice

of cheer,

And just the time I need Him, He’s always near.

Chorus

He lives! He lives! Christ Jesus lives today:

He walks with me and talks with me,

along life’s narrow way;

He lives! He lives! Salvation to impart!

You ask me how I know He lives?

He lives within my heart!

Verse 2

In all the world around me I see His loving care,

And though my heart grows weary, I never will

despair;

I know that He is leading through all the stormy

blast,

The day of His appearing will come at last.

Chorus

He lives! He lives! Christ Jesus lives today:

He walks with me and talks with me,

along life’s narrow way;

He lives! He lives! Salvation to impart!

You ask me how I know He lives?

He lives within my heart!

Verse 3

Rejoice, rejoice, O Christian, lift up

your voice and sing!

Eternal hallelujahs to Jesus Christ the King!

The hope of all who seek Him, the Help of all who

find,

None other is so loving, so good and kind!

Chorus

He lives! He lives! Christ Jesus lives today:

He walks with me and talks with me,

along life’s narrow way;

He lives! He lives! Salvation to impart!

You ask me how I know He lives?

He lives within my heart!
