61. He Lives for You and Me

1 Oh I am glad because I live,
Christ is my Redeemer,
His pardon full do I receive,
Jesus rose for me.

Chorus:
Christ of Calvary,
He died for you,
He died for me,
He conquered death to make us free,
He lives for you and me.

2 Oh come and on His strength believe,
Christ the mighty Saviour,
The Truth the Life are His to give,
Come and taste and see. [Chorus]

3 Tell all the world the wondrous joy,
Found in Christ the Saviour,
The peace in Him has no alloy,
Jesus lives for thee. [Chorus]
