[G]God sent His Son, they called Him, [C]Jesus; He came to [G]love, heal and [D]forgive [D7] He lived and [G]died [G7]to buy my [C]pardon, An empty [G]grave is there to [D]prove my Savior [G]lives!
※[G]Because He [G]lives, I can face to[C]morrow, Because He [G]lives, all fear is [D]gone; Because I [G]know [C] [G] He holds the [C]future, And life is [G]worth the living, [D]Just because He [G]lives!
[G]How sweet to hold a newborn [C]baby, And feel the [G]pride and joy he [D]brings; [D7] But greater [G]still [G7]the calm as - [C]surance: This child can [G]face uncertain [D]days because He [G]lives!
And then one [G]day, I'll cross the [C]river, I'll fight life's [G]final war with [D]pain; [D7] And then, as [G]death [G7]gives way to [C]victory, I'll see the [G]lights of glory [D]and I'll know He [G]lives!
