Lyrics: William J. Gaither/Gloria Gaither
Music: William J. Gaither/Gloria Gaither
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
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' the 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
'Cause he lives because he lives
I can face tomorrow I can face tomorrow
Because he lives because he lives all fear
Is gone all fear is gone
Because I know because
I know he holds the future he holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because he lives
Come on 'cause I know
I know he holds the future he holds the future
And life is worth the living just because he lives
And my life is worth the living
Just because he lives
