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
