A precious truth to us is giv’n, From God’s own Son that came from Heav’n, And on His word we can rely: “He that believes shall never die.”
Refrain: I shall not die—on Jesus’ breast I’ll fall asleep, and there I’ll rest; Though I should sink beneath the sod, My life is hid with Christ in God.
He that believes, though he were dead, Shall rise again, as Jesus said; His word is true, He cannot lie: “He that believes shall never die.”
When cares and toils are all laid down, My dust is molding in the ground, There in the presence of His Son, I shall not die, but I’ll live on.
Oh, blessed thought, someday I’ll see The One who gave His life for me; Though I should sink beneath the sod, My life is hid with Christ in God.
