He Lives

Israel Houghton

Compositor: Israel Houghton

Verse 1:
More than a baby in a manger
To whom nobles would humbly bow their knee
Or the young Man who heaven knew as Savior
He is alive in me

Verse 2:
More than the Man who walked on water,
Or the One who caused blinded eyes to see
Greater than all the signs and wonders
He is alive in me

Chorus 1:
He lives, He lives
He conquered the grave,
Covered our sin
He lives, He lives
Death could not hold
The promise within
He lives

Verse 3:
More than the Man who heard hosanna
From the same cried, "crucify the King"
Freely He gave as they demanded
Still He's alive in me

Verse 4:
More than the man, mankind rejected
With nails in His hands and through His feet
But the end told much more then they expected
For everyone knows in three days he rose
With power forever to redeem you and me

Chorus 2:
He lives, He lives
He conquered the grave
Covered our sin
He lives, He lives
Death could not hold
The promise within


Woh! He lives, He lives
He conquered the grave
Covered our sin
He lives, He lives
Death could not hold
The promise within
