[Verse 1]
G                                C
God sent His son they called Him Jesus
G              D       D7
He came to love, heal and forgive
G    G7        C
He lived and died to buy my pardon
G                 D
An empty grave is there to prove
G
My Savior lives

[Chorus]
G               G7            C
Because He lives I can face tomorrow
G                  D
Because He lives all fear is gone
G  D  G             C
Because I know   He holds the future
G
And life is worth the living
D               G
Just because He lives

[Verse 2]
G                           C
How sweet to hold a newborn baby
G           D       D7
And feel the pride and joy he gives
G    G7          C
But greater still the calm assurance
G              D
This child can face uncertain days
G
Because He lives

[Chorus]
G               G7            C
Because He lives I can face tomorrow
G                  D
Because He lives all fear is gone
G  D  G             C
Because I know   He holds the future
G
And life is worth the living
D               G
Just because He lives

[Verse 3]
G                               C
And then one day I'll cross the river
G         D       D7
I'll fight life's final war with pain
G    G7            C
And then as death gives way to victory
G               D
I'll see the lights of glory and
G
I'll know He lives

[Chorus]
G               G7            C
Because He lives I can face tomorrow
G                  D
Because He lives all fear is gone
G  D  G             C
Because I know   He holds the future
G
And life is worth the living
D               G
Just because He lives
