How sweet to hold a new born baby And feel the pride and the joy that He gaves So but greater still the calm assurance We can face uncertain days because He lives And 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 a living, just because He lives And then one day I'll cross that 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 reigns 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 a living, just because He lives He lives He lives
