Mark 16:6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Every redeemed sinner is a testimony to the life-changing, life-giving power of the risen Christ.
Because He Lives
_________________
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!
Chorus
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 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!
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 victory, — `I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
