GGod sent His son, they called Him, JCesus;
He came to lGove, heal and Dforgive; D7
He lived and Gdied tG7o buy my pCardon, Cm
An empty gGrave is tEmhere to pAmrove my SD7avior lGives!
Because He lGives, I can face tComorrow,
Because He lGives, all fear is gAone; D7
Because I kGnow G7 He holds the fCuture, Cm
And life is wGorth the lEmiving,
AmJust bD7ecause He lGives!
GHow sweet to hold a newborn bCaby,
And feel the pGride and joy he gDives; D7
But greater sGtill tG7he calm assuCrance: Cm
This child can fGace uEmncertain dAmays bD7ecause He LGives!
GAnd then one day, I'll cross the rCiver,
I'll fight life's Gfi-nal war with Dpain; D7
And then, as Gdeath gG7ives way to vCict'ry, Cm
I'll see the Glights of gEmlory aAmnd I'll kD7now He Glives!
