Because He Lives

How sweet to hold our newborn baby
And feel the pride and the joy that He gives
But greater still the calm assurance
We can face uncertain days because He 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 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

He lives
