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 tomb
Is there to prove
My savior 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.
And then one day
Across 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 he reigns
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
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
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
They called him Jesus
He came to love,
Heal and forgive
He lived and died
To buy my pardon
An empty tomb
Is there to prove
My savior 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.
And then one day
Across 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 he reigns
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
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
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
