96. The Savior Lives, No More to Die

L.M.
by S. Medley
1
The Savior lives, no more to die;
 
He lives, our Head, enthroned on high;
 
He lives triumphant o’er the grave;
 
He lives eternally to save.
“Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.” (Romans 6:9)
“Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places. Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church. Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.” (Ephesians 1:20-23)
“He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.” (Matthew 28:6)
“O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?” (1 Corinthians 15:55)
“And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.” (Hebrews 5:9)
2
The chief of sinners He receives;
 
His saints He loves and never leaves;
 
He’ll guard us safe from every ill,
 
And all His promises fulfill.
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” (1 Timothy 1:15)
3
Abundant grace will He afford,
 
Till we are present with the Lord;
 
And prove what we have sung before,
 
That Jesus lives forevermore.
4
Then let our souls in Him rejoice,
 
And sing His praise with cheerful voice:
 
Our doubts and fears forever gone,
 
For Christ is on the Father’s throne.
