Because He Lives

[Bb]God sent His son,[Eb] [Bb] they called Him, [Eb]Jesus; [Ab] [Eb]

He came to [Bb]love, [Eb] [Bb]heal and [F]forgive;[F7]

He lived and [Bb]died [Bb7]to buy my [Eb]pardon, [Cm7]

An empty [Bb]grave is there to prove my [F7]Savior [Bb]lives!

(Chorus)

Because He [Bb]lives, I can face [Eb]tomorrow,

Because He [Bb]lives, all fear is [F7]gone;

Because I [Bb]know [F] [Bb] He holds the [Eb]future,[Cm7]

And life is [Bb]worth the living,

Just [F7]because He [Bb]lives!

[Bb]How sweet to hold [Eb] [Bb] a newborn [Eb]baby,[Ab] [Eb]

And feel the [Bb]pride[Eb] [Bb] and joy he [F]gives; [F7]

But greater [Bb]still [Bb7]the calm ass[Eb]urance: [Ebm]

This child can [Bb]face [Gm]uncertain days [F7]because He [Bb]Lives!

Chorus

[Bb]And then one day,[Eb] [Bb] I'll cross the [Eb]river,[Ab] [Eb]

I'll fight life's [Bb]fi-[Eb] [Bb]nal war with [F]pain; [F7]

And then, as [Bb]death [Bb7]gives way to [Eb]vict'ry,[Cm7]

I'll see the [Bb]lights of glory and I'll [F7]know He[Bb] lives!
