The lord is there....

I love the lord...my Savior...
The lord is there.  No doubt about it.  I was going through a hard time in my life, financially.  I had more bills than I had money.  I did not have enough to pay my bills let alone tithing.  But after a long talk with my dad, and a fathers blessing, I decided to pay my tithing.  And guess what happened.
I was blessed.  Tremendously.
blessed with enough to pay my bills and then some.  I am so grateful for my father in heaven and his hand in my life. these words come to my head. 
 know that my Redeemer lives!
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever living head!

He lives triumphant from the grave;
He lives eternally to save;
He lives exalted, throned above;
He lives to rule his Church in love.
He lives to grant me rich supply;
He lives to guide me with his eye;
He lives to comfort me when faint;
He lives to hear my soul’s complaint.
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.
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.
He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly 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!
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.
He lives, all glory to his name!
He lives, my savior, still the same;
What joy this blest assurance gives:
I know that my Redeemer lives!
