Lyrics to the hymn, He Lives

Mountains and some cars

Introduction

Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write the lyrics to n hymns, and maybe a couple of other things.

Today is a hymn, as usual, and it was written in 1933 by Mr. Alfred Henry Ackley. What is it called?

If you paying any attention to the title of this blog post, you would know that it is the well known, well loved hymn, He Lives.

If you don't know how the tune goes, look up Alan Jackson on YouTube; that is my favorite version of this beautiful hymn.

See you in the afterwards!

The Lyrics 

Verse 1 

I serve a risen Savior, 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, oh 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.

Afterwards
Well, how was that? I really like it.

And, yes, I know my outro is terrible. I mean, who's says, see you in the afterwards?

If you think of anything better, let me know down in the comments.

I send out new content every Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and the occasional Random Chatty Day. Check out my old posts while you wait.

Goodbye, and God bless.

Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write the lyrics to hymns, and the occasional recipe. Today, the hymn we are looking at is called This Is My Father's World; it was written in 1901 by a Mr. Maltbie Davenport Babcock. It was originally a poem with sixteen verses, but when it was set to music, only three verses were chosen. A tree and a bush Someday I might do the whole poem, but today, I'm just going to do the three that I know. Let me know if you want me to do the whole poem. Go to YouTube and look up Folksandhymns to find the tune. Now, on with the show! The Lyrics  Verse 1 This is my Father's world; And to my listening ears, All nature sings  And 'round me rings  The music of the spheres. This is my Father's world;  I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, Of skies and seas. His hand the wonders wrought. Verse 2 This is my Father's world; The birds, their carols raise. The morning light,  The lily...

Or do you want a change from the regular buttercreams?
