How sweet to hold a newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy that he gives
But greater still the calm assurance
We can face uncertain days for me
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 the living
Just because he lives
And then one day we'll all cross the 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 arives
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 he lives
He lives
