He Lives On High

Baylus Benjamin McKinney • English

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 33:5

Verse 1

Christ the Savior came from Heaven’s glory, To redeem the lost from sin and shame; On His brow he wore the thorn-crown glory, And upon Calvary He took my blame.

Chorus

He lives on high, He lives on high, Triumphant over sin and all its stain; He lives on high, He lives on high, Some day He’s coming again.

Verse 2

He arose from death and all its sorrow, To dwell in that land of joy and love; He is coming back some glad tomorrow, And He’ll take all His children home above.

Chorus

He lives on high, He lives on high, Triumphant over sin and all its stain; He lives on high, He lives on high, Some day He’s coming again.

Verse 3

Weary soul, to Jesus come confessing, Redemption from sin He offers thee; Look to Jesus and receive a blessing, There is life, there is joy and victory!

Chorus

He lives on high, He lives on high, Triumphant over sin and all its stain; He lives on high, He lives on high, Some day He’s coming again.
