How sweet to hold 
           C     Am7 
A newborn baby

And feel the pride

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

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!
