GOD SENT HIS SON, THEY CALLED HIM, JESUS;
HE CAME TO LOVE, HEAL AND FORGIVE;
HE LIVED AND DIED TO BUY MY PARDON,
AN EMPTY GRAVE IS THERE TO PROVE MY SAVIOR LIVES!
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,
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!
