Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
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.
REFRAIN
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.
VERSE 2
How sweet to hold our newborn baby
And feel the pride, and joy he gives;
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days because He lives.
VERSE 3
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 victry,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll Know He lives.
