Because He Lives Songtext
von Lost and Found

Simon carried His cross for Him
Simon did what he had to do
Someone nailed Pilate′s sign for Him
"This is Jesus, the King of the Jews"

Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live

They crucified Him at the place of the skull
Thieves were hung on either side
He refused their wine and gall
They threw lots as He was crucified

Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live


All who passed Him by mocked Him there
With the scribes and the Pharisees
At last He cried, "My God, My God
Why have You forsaken Me?"

Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live

When they came to the tomb that day
The ground shook, the stone was rolled away
The angel said, "Do not be afraid
Come and look, this is where He laid"

Christ has died, Christ has risen
Christ will come again
Christ has died, Christ has risen
Christ will come again
Christ will come again

Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
Because He lives, we shall live
