Cântăre 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 SAVIOUR LIVES.



####CHORUS:



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

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 VICT'RY,

I'LL SEE THE LIGHTS OF GLORY

AND I'LL KNOW HE LIVES.
