He Lives Within My Heart

He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today;
He walks with me and talks with me along life's narrow way;
He lives, He lives, salvation to impart;
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart!

A great Easter song that we sang this past Sunday, a week after Easter.  I don't know what music our church had for Easter because we attended church in Baton Rouge.  Our service concluded with the Messiah chorus;when Dooley was the choir director. the choir always sang this for Easter and Christmas.

The song was written by Ashforth H. Ackley in response to the question, "Why should I worship a dead Jew?
It first appeared in 1933 and has been a favorite of many since that time.
