I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVETH.

"I Know That My Redeemer Liveth" is one of the most profound declarations of faith a choir can sing. Taken from Handel's Messiah, this soaring soprano aria brings the words of the Book of Job to life. In the choir loft, it requires a soloist who can carry its quiet confidence and steady, rising hope, delivering each phrase with clarity and conviction.

We often turn to this piece during the Easter season to celebrate the Resurrection, as the lyrics shift from the trials of the flesh to the triumphant "For now is Christ risen from the dead." It is also a deeply comforting choice for funerals and memorial Masses. Hearing that unwavering promise—that we shall see God in our own flesh—offers a profound sense of peace to a grieving congregation.
