I sang this for 14 years every night, so Dear of mine and I thought a great way to close this night God sent His son, they called Him Jesus He came to love, heal and forgive He lived and died to buy our pardon An empty grave is there to prove our Savior 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 the living just because He lives And then one day, I'll cross the river And I'll fight life's final war with Him 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 the living, just because He lives Hallelujah He lives Hallelujah
