HE LIVES
I once was an orphan, I was far from home
When hope was awakened by a Father’s song
To sin and death I did belong
But my Jesus lives
No debt to the darkness, He has paid it all
No name but the new name that is making whole
In His righteousness I rest my soul
For my Jesus lives
CHORUS
Oh yes, He lives, oh yes, He lives
And redeeming hope by grace He gives
I know He lives, I know He lives
Great God of the promise, in Your hands and feet
My heart is astonished by the wounds I see
The weight of sin is gone from me
BRIDGE 1
Oh my freedom, oh my father
I’m no longer a slave to fear
What a Savior, sing hallelujah
Great the mercy that brought me near
BRIDGE 2
Because He lives, from this brokenness I’ll rise
Because He lives, I am welcomed into life
My Lord, my God, my Lord, my God
