Proclaiming God's Praises And Displaying His Virtues in the Borough of Broxbourne
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 Saviour 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.
How sweet to hold a new born baby,
And feel the pride, a joy he gives;
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days
because He 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.
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.
