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! Chorus 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!
