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 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 / How sweet to hold, a newborn baby / And feel the pride, and joy He brings / But greater still, the calm assurance / This child can face, uncertain days, because He lives / And then one day, I'll cross the river / I'll fight life's final, war with pain / And then as death, gives way to victory / I'll see the lights, of glory and, I'll know He lives
