Jakarta Festival Chorus - Because He Lives (Gloria & William Gaither. Arr. by Mary McDonald)

Because He Lives
Words and Music by Gloria Gaither and William Gaither
Arranged by Mary McDonald
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 savior lives
How sweet to hold a newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy He gives
But greater still the calm assurance
This child can face uncertain day,
because He lives, 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
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living, just because He lives
just because He lives!
