“Because He Lives”

Hymn # 407

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 gives;

But greater still the calm assurance, This child can face uncertain days 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.

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.

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.
