Lyrics: William J. Gaither/Gloria Gaither
Music: William J. Gaither/Gloria Gaither
How sweet to hold our newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy that He gives
But greater still the calm assurance
We can face uncertain day, because He lives
and 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
And then one day, I'll cross that river
I'll fight life's final war with pain
And then, as death gives way to victory
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He reigns
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
He lives.
He lives!
