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.

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.

Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia, aleluia
Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia, aleluia

Gloria! we love you
Gloria! we love you
Gloria! we love you
Gloria! we love you
Gloria! we love you

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.
