Because He Lives
[Verse 1]
A D
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus;
A E E7
He came to love, heal and forgive;
A A7 D
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
A E A
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
[Chorus]
A A7 D
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
A E E7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
A E A D
Because I know He holds the future,
A
And life is worth the living,
E A
Just because He lives!
[Verse 2]
A D
And then one day, I'll cross the river,
A E E7
I'll fight life's final war with pain;
A A7 D
And then, as death gives way to victory,
A E A
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
[Chorus]
A A7 D
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
A E E7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
A E A D
Because I know He holds the future,
A
And life is worth the living,
E A
Just because He lives!
[Outro]
A
And life is worth the living,
E A
Just because He lives!
