Lutheran Hymn I Know that my Redeemer Lives

[@LauraBlack-cp2il]

I grew up Lutheran and attended Lutheran grade school and high school. When in grade school, a young student had to have heart surgery and sadly passed away during the surgery. Our entire student body attended his funeral during a school day and we sang this hymn. All 8 verses. I will never forget that. It made a huge impact on me! The words are deeply inspiring. Perfect for celebrating Easter and a loved one’s passing to eternal life. If we are in Him we can truly know our redeemer lives and be assured that one day we will see him face to face and forevermore adore HIM.

@LauraBlack-cp2il, thank you for your witness about Jesus Christ. I went to Lutheran grade school K-8 and church for 30 years and I agree, this IS one of the most beautiful, inspiring, comforting. hope-filled songs for Easter, for funerals, and I might add, for throughout the year. tcg

Growing up Lutheran and hearing the hymns, you hear the gospel message in each one. I thank God for that opportunity.

[@paulconnors2078]

This was one of my Mom's favorite hymns. When I attended a Lutheran elementary school on Long Island in the 1960s, we always sang this in chapel at Easter.

Didn’t grow up anything! Gave my life to the Lord, married a man who ‘decided’ to start going to church at. 19 and ‘happened’ to walk to a Lutheran church by his apartment. I took the instructional class and became a Lutheran prior to marriage. That was over 40 years ago! I am so thankful for the law and the gospel. These hymns preach the message.

I’m a fifth-generation member of a Swedish Lutheran church near me and I feel so grateful for how lucky I am. My grandmother just passed away and singing at the church I grew up in- knowing she did too- is so special to me! They lived closer, but I’m an hour away- the drive is still so worth it to continue my family’s tradition at the church that is so important to us all! I have photos of my parents’ and grandparents’ weddings there. I can’t wait for mine, and to raise my kids there too :)

My mother after some experience in her early years became dissolutioned with the Catholic Church and sadly most organized religions in general, but she remained agnostic. I am incredibly thankful she was open to my decisions and supported me on my path to discovering myself and religion, and I am proud to know thanks to her that I have been a Lutheran for about 2 years now. I don’t know why I decided to write it but this hymn is truly a beautiful piece of music and faith, I pray your lives are going well.

He lives, He lives, who once was dead; He lives, my everliving Head. 2 He lives triumphant from the grave, He lives eternally to save, He lives all-glorious in the sky, He lives exalted there on high. 3 He lives to bless me with His love, He lives to plead for me above, He lives my hungry soul to feed, He lives to help in time of need. 4 He lives to grant me rich supply, He lives to guide me with His eye, He lives to comfort me when faint, He live to hear my soul's complaint. 5 He lives to silence all my fears, He lives to wipe away my tears, He lives to calm my troubled heart, He lives all blessings to impart. 6 He lives, my kind, wise, heav'nly friend, He lives and loves me to the end; He lives, and while He lives, I'll sing; He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King. 7 He lives and grants me daily breath; He lives and I shall conquer death; He lives my mansion to prepare; He lives to bring me safely there. 8 He lives, all glory to His name! He lives, my Jesus, still the same. Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives, "I know that my Redeemer lives!"

I was raised Lutheran and take great pride in it. BC i went through confirmation, my freshman year new and old testament classes were rather easy (learning all the books in the bible again wasn't too hard!) I went to a Baptist school for the first year and had to go to their services once a week and I just was uncomfortable with the big band style setup that they used. After several years of not going to church bc of political things that happen between members, i hear these songs and feel like ten years ago, 11 years old and hearing these songs weekly. Its very nice, thanks for posting these!

[@williamgable7554]

Agree with your comments regarding the Lutheran church. In my Lutheran youth one would always look forward to choir practice and Sunday services where these old hymns were regularly included. At college in the South I would attend the Sunday evening informal service at the Methodist church where the first 15 or 20 minutes would be the singing of old traditional hymns from an old paperback songbook led by a men's chorus. Always thought these old traditional hymns do more to return us to the faith of our childhood than all the sermons and holy holies of todays church offerings.

He didn’t die in vein, he died so that whoever just *BELIEVES* in God, they might not perish, and be granted eternal life in the kingdom of God, he died to that we could be saved by God, God sent him to die to that the believers would have one way to heaven: By Jesus & him alone as well as God’s grace.
