God sent His son and they called Him Jesus God sent His son

He came to love, heal and forgive

He lived and He died to buy my pardon

An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.

Refrain: Because He lives I can face tomorrow

Because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future

My life is worth a living just because He lives

Then one day I’m gonna cross that river

I’m gonna fight life’s final, life’s final war with pain

And then as death someday gives way to victory

I’m gonna see those lights of glory

and know that my Savior reigns

Refrain
