G C
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus;
G Am D
He came to love, heal and forgive;
G C
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
G D G
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
[Chorus]
G C
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D
Because He lives, all fear is gone,
G D G C Am
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G
Just because He lives!
[Verse 2]
G C
How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
G Am D
And feel the pride and joy he brings;
G C
But greater still the calm assurance:
G D G
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!
[Verse 3]
G C
And then one day, I'll cross the river,
G Am D
I'll fight life's final war with pain;
G C
And then, as death gives way to victory,
G D G
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
