[Intro]   [G]  [Em]  [Am]  [D7]  [G]  [C]  [G]

[G]God sent His son, they called Him, J[C]esus;
He came t[G]o love, heal and forg[Am]ive[D7];
He lived and[G] di[G7]ed to buy my p[C]ardon,
An empty g[G]rave is t[Em]here to p[Am]rove my S[D7]avior l[G]ives! [C] [G]

{soc}
Because He l[G]ives, I can face t[C]omorrow,
Because He l[G]ives, all fear is g[Am]one; [D7] 
Because I k[G]no[G7]w   He holds the f[C]uture,
And life is w[G]orth the l[Em]iving, j[Am]ust be[D7]cause He l[G]ives!  [C] [G]
{eoc}
[Interlude]   [G] [Em]  [Am]  [D7]  [G]  [C]  [G]

[G]And then one day, I'll cross the r[C]iver,
I'll fight life's fi[G]nal war with p[Am]ain;[D7] 
And then, as d[G]eath[G7] gives way to v[C]ict'ry,
I'll see the l[G]ights of g[Em]lory[Am] and I'll k[D7]now He r[G]eigns  [C] [G]

Because He l[G]ives, I can face t[C]omorrow,

And life is w[G]orth the l[Em]iving, j[Am]ust be[D7]cause He l[G]ives!  [C] [G]
