A Song I’m Singing

Still thinking about yesterday’s post…..and I’ve had this song on my heart (and in my head)!! Hum along as you read the words – it might stick with you today!! Looking forward to a wonderful weekend!

Because He Lives
Words and music by William J. Gaither© 1971
Matthew 28:6″He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.Come, see the place where the Lord lay.”


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!
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!
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!
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 vict’ry, I’ll see the lights of glory and I’ll know 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!

  1. Beautiful song and it is perfect for today – Good Friday and as we approach Easter weekend. Great thought to keep running through our heads!

  2. Now I know we are both brilliant! I was thinking what I wanted to post today, and it was the words to an Easter Hymn! We’ll see if I do it! Just so you know I was not copying you. :~}
    I just love this song. Heard it when I was first a new Christian.
    Thanks for the memories!
    Easter Blessings!
