Because of Jesus I Can Face Tomorrow

Because Jesus Lives, I Can Face Tomorrow!
Because Jesus lives, I can face tomorrow!
He has come and taken away my sorrow!

Because he lives, I have true love within!
I have found in Christ, my best friend!

Because he lives, I have peace I never knew!
He gives new meaning to “I LOVE YOU!”

Because of his grace, my life is firmly planted.
There’s nothing in life, that I take for granted!

Because of his sacrifice and death on the cross…
I have an assurance when everything seems lost.

Because of his forgiving and soul cleansing power…
I have what I need to make it through the hour!

Because of all this, and everything he’s done for me.
I’ve received a brand new life, so abundantly!

He can do the same for you!  Won’t you let him?
Once he’s touched you.  You’ll never forget him!

He can do what no other God could ever do!
He can completely change 
and make you brand new!

Because of Jesus, we can face the next day!
Christ has gone before us and made a way!

A way to know and to completely trust him!
All one has to do, is accept and receive him!
