I am He that liveth. - Revelation 1:18

Jesus once died in our stead; He now liveth at the right hand of God. He is the fountain of life. Because he lives, His people shall live also. He lives in heaven to see of the travail of His soul, in the regeneration, sanctification, preservation, and glorification of His beloved family.

He lives to intercede for them, to sympathize with them, and to pour down blessings upon them. He lives to watch over them, to counsel and direct them, and to save them for evermore. He lives to execute the purposes of the Father, to manage all the concerns of His church, and to glorify us with Himself for evermore.

Gracious Saviour! earthly friends may die, but Thou livest; temporal comforts may be lost, but have we still a place in Thy heart; Thou art our Friend before Thy Father’s throne!

May we ever remember, Jesus liveth who was dead; and He is alive for evermore, and has the keys of hell and of death. O to live for Him on earth, who lives for us in heaven! O to live like Him, that as He is, so we may be in this world - representatives of God and holiness! O to live by faith on Him, in sweet and holy fellowship with Him.

His saints He loves, and never leaves

The chief of sinners He receives;

Cheer up, my heart! with this revive,

The sinner’s Friend is yet alive.
