BECAUSE HE LIVES
[Verse 1]
G C
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus;
G D D7
He came to love, heal and forgive;
G G7 C
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
G D G
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
[Chorus]
G G7 C
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G C G C
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G
Just because He lives!
[Verse 2]
G C
How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
G D D7
And feel the pride and joy he gives;
G G7 C
But greater still the calm assurance:
G D G
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!
[Chorus]
G G7 C
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G C G C
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G
Just because He lives!
