The following hymn was written by Bill and Gloria Gaither in 1971. As we end the first quarter of the year today and get ready for the Easter season, it’s a good time to remind ourselves of the hope we have through the death and resurrection of Jesus.
No matter how tumultuous the beginning of the year may have been for you, be assured that because He lives we can face tomorrow.
1 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!
2 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!
3 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 victory,
I’ll see the lights of glory and I’ll know He lives!
“There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.” (Proverbs 23:18)
Remain inspired!
