Because He Lives Tab par Gloria and William Gaither

Verse 1:
A               A7                D
God sent His son, they called Him Jesus;
           A              E       E7
He came to love, heal and forgive;
             A    A7        D
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
         A                 E               A
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!


Chorus:
A               A7           D
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
           A                  E    E7
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
          A E A             D
Because I know He holds the future,
            A
And life is worth the living,
E               A
Just because He lives!


Verse 2:
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 days because He Lives!


Verse 3:
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 vict'ry,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
