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, my fear is gone,
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

(Mannen) And then one day, I’ll cross the river,
I’ll fight life’s final war
(Allen) And then, as death gives way
I’ll see the lights of glory and I’ll know He 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!

Omdat Hij leeft, ben ik niet bang voor morgen
Omdat Hij leeft mijn angst is weg
Omdat ik weet Hij heeft de toekomst
En het leven is het leven waard
Omdat Hij leeft
