God sent  His Son,  
                C     Am7 
They called Him Jesus 
   C/D      G    Bm7/F#   Em7 
He came to love,  
    G/D     Am7    D 
Heal and forgive 
   C/D       G  G/B                              
He lived and died           
           C     
To buy my pardon 
 Cm6      G/D               Am/D 
An empty grave is there to prove 
   C/D  D    G    C/G  G 
My  Saviour lives 




[Refrão]

  C/D   D    G     G/B 
Because He lives,  
            C       G/B  Am7 
I can face tomorrow 
  C/D      Gmaj7   Em7 
Because He lives 
             Am7    D 
All fear is gone 
   C/D  D  G   F/A G/B 
Because I know   
    G7       C     G/B   Am7 
He holds the future 
    Cm6       G/D            Am/D 
And life is worth the living just  
   C/D   D   G   C/G   G 
Because He lives 

 
    C/D        G   G/B 
How sweet to hold,  
           C     Am7 
a newborn baby 
   C/D      G    Bm7/F#   Em7 
And feel the pride,  
    G/D     Am7    D 
and joy He gives 
   C/D       G  G/B                              
But greater still          
           C 
the calm assurance 
 Cm6/A      G/D               Am/D 
This child can face uncertain days 
   C/D  D    G    C/G  G 
Because He lives 


 
    C/D        G   G/B 
And then one day,  
                C     Am7 
I'll cross the river 
   C/D      G    Bm7/F#   Em7 
I'll fight life's final 
    G/D     Am7    D 
war with pain 
   C/D       G  G/B                              
And then as death         
           C 
gives way to victory 
 Cm6      G/D               Am/D 
I'll see the lights of glory 
   C/D  D    G    C/G  G 
and I'll know He lives!
