Tom: G
G Cadd9
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus;
G D Am7 D7
He came to love, heal and forgive;
G G7 C/G Am7
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
G D G Cadd9 G
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
[Chorus]
G G7 C/G
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D D7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G D G Cadd9 Am7
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G Cadd9 G
Just because He lives!
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
G D Am7 D7
And feel the pride and joy he gives;
G G7 C/G Am7
But greater still the calm assurance:
G D G Cadd9 G
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!
[Chorus]
G G7 C/G
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D D7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G D G Cadd9 Am7
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G Cadd9 G
Just because He lives!
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9
And then one day, I'll cross the river,
G D Am7 D7
I'll fight life's final war with pain;
G G7 C/G Am7
And then, as death gives way to vict'ry,
G D G Cadd9 G
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
[Chorus]
G G7 C/G
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D D7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G D G Cadd9 Am7
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G Cadd9 G
Just because He lives!
[Outro]
G G7 C/G
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
G D D7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
G D G Cadd9 Am7
Because I know He holds the future,
G
And life is worth the living,
D G Cadd9 G
Just because He lives!
