Because He Lives

Sent to earth for a season,
here to learn to love and to forgive,
to find the hidden miracles
in everything that is
because He lives.
I can change and start over,
I can know the healing that He gives.
And though I have so far to go,
I can still have hope
because He lives.
Because He lives I have a rock to lean on,
because He lives to strengthen me,
and everything I’ll ever be is the gift that comes
from all He is and all He’s done.
There is hope for tomorrow,
a promise only He can give.
The storms will try our faith,
but we know the way
because He lives.
Because He lives I have a rock to lean on,
because He lives to strengthen me.
And everything I’ll ever be is the gift that comes
from all He is and all He’s done.
Sent to earth for a season,
here to learn to love and to forgive,
and when it’s time to leave this place
I know I’ll see His face
because He lives.
I want to testfiy of all He gives
because He lives.
