The Worship Initiative - Because He Lives

[Verse]
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
