(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
(Chorus)

Because he lives
I can face tomorrow
Because he lives

All fear is gone
Because I know
He holds the future

And life and is worth the living
Just because he lives
(Verse 2)

How sweet to hold
A newborn baby
And feel the pride

And joy he gives
But greater still
The calm $$#urance

This child can face
Uncertain days
Because he lives

(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
And then one day

I'll cross the river
I'll fight life's fi-
Nal war with pain

And then as death
Gives way to victory
I'll see the lights

Of glory and
I'll know he lives
(Chorus 2xs)
