Hymn - Because he lives

^FGod sent His son, they called Him, ^FJesus; He came to ^Flove, heal and ^Gforgive;^C7 He lived and ^Fdied ^C7to buy my ^Fpardon, An empty ^Fgrave is there to ^Gprove my Savior ^Flives!

^FBecause He lives^C7, I can face ^Ftomorrow, Because He ^Flives, all fear is ^Ggone; Because I ^Fkn^Gow^F He holds the ^Ffuture, And life is ^Fworth the living, ^GJust because He ^Flives!

^FHow sweet to hold a newborn ^Fbaby, And feel th^Fe pride and ^Gjoy he g^C7ives; But greater s^Ftill ^C7the calm ass^Furance: This child can ^Fface uncertain ^Gdays because He ^FLives!

^FBecause He lives^C7, I can face ^Ftomorrow, Because He ^Flives, all fear is ^Ggone; Because I ^Fkn^Gow^F He holds the ^Ffuture, And life is ^Fworth the living, ^GJust because He ^Flives!

^FAnd then one day, I'll cross the ^Friver, I'll fight life's ^Ffinal war ^Gwith pai^C7n; And then, as ^Fdeath^C7 gives way to ^Fvict'ry, I'll see the ^Flights of glory ^Gand I'll know He ^Flives!

^FBecause He lives^C7, I can face ^Ftomorrow, Because He ^Flives, all fear is ^Ggone; Because I ^Fkn^Gow^F He holds the ^Ffuture, And life is ^Fworth the living, ^GJust because He ^Flives!
