3rd. Stanza, my favourite! Let's see which one is yours
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 Saviour 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
2. How sweet to hold a new
born baby
And feel the pride and joy he
gives
But greater still the calm
assurance
This child can face uncertain
days because Christ lives
3. 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 vict’ry
I’ll see the lights of glory and
I’ll know He lives
