God Sent His Son, They Called Him Jesus; He Came To Love, Heal And Forgive. He Lived And Died To Buy My Pardon; An Empty Grave Is There To Prove My Savior Lives. Chorus: Because He Lives I Can Face Tomorrow Because He Lives All Fear Is Gone Because I Know He Holds The Future And Life Is Worth The Living Just Because He Lives How Sweet To Hold A Newborn Baby, And Feel The Pride And Joy He Gives; But Greater Still The Calm Assurance: This Child Can Face Uncertain Day Because He Lives. Chorus And Then One Day I'll Cross The River; I'll Fight Life's Final War With Pain. And Then, As Death Gives Way To Vict'ry, I'll See The Lights Of Glory And I'll Know He Reigns. Chorus
