								##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     Cm
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
%          G        Em       Am       D7     G
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!

##Chorus:##
%           G                  C 
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
%           G                   A   D7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
%           G    G7             C     Cm
Because I know   He holds the future,
%             G          Em
And life is worth the living,
%Am   D7         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     Cm
But greater still   the calm assurance:
%                G    Em        Am     D7         G
This child can face uncertain days   because He Lives!

##Verse 3:##
%G                                  C
And then one day, I'll cross the river,
%                     G               D  D7
I'll fight life's fi-nal war with pain;
%             G       G7          C      Cm
And then, as death gives way to vict'ry,
%               G        Em    Am        D7      G
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
