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!
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!

This was my Husbands late grandmothers favorite hymn!
Happy Easter to you and yours!
Nothing is as comforting as know those words. And KNOWING they are true! He LIVES! Amen!
Have a blessed Easter
Caro and I were just talking over Easter lunch about the year our small church choir did the entire Gaither "Alleluia" with instruments. We started singing at the table.
It's lovely to see the words to that wonderful song again.
I hope your celebration has been wonderful.
It's such a beautiful hymn....Happy Easter Janie to you an your lovely family!
... and life is worth the living just because He lives!
AMEN!
Love to you on this Easter evening and always, Janie!
