Because He Lives

God sent His son, they called Him Jesus
He came to love, heal and forgive
He lived and died, to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior live

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know, He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives

How sweet to hold a new born baby
And feel the pride and joy he gives
But greater still is that assurance the child can face
Uncertain days because He lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know, He hold the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives

And then one day, I'll cross that river
I'll fight life's final war with pain
And then as death gives way to victory
I'll see the light of glory and I'll know that He lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know, He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives
