He Lives on High
Hawaiian Folk Song
B.B. McKinney (1886-1952)

Christ the Savior came from heaven's glory to redeem the lost from sin and shame;
On His brow he wore the thorn-crown gory, and upon Calvary He took my blame.
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.

He arose from heath 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 in love.
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.

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!
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.
