Lyrics
Because He Lives In Me © 1999 Bob Smith
There?s a heavenly light inside of me
Shining forth for all the world to see
Ever since I called upon the name of Jesus
All I was before has ceased to be
Now I walk with Him close by my side
By His precious blood I?m justified
And the life I live has found a whole new meaning
As His love keeps growing in me
His love?s overflowing in me
Chorus
I only live because he lives in me
He loosed the chains of death
And set me free
I live by faith in Him
Who conquered every sin
I only live because He lives in me
Since I opened up my heart to Him
Earthly hopes and dreams have all grown dim
And my life in Him has brought a whole new freedom
Knowing Jesus died to save me
Sin will nevermore enslave me
Repeat chorus
Bridge
Now His Spirit?s in control
There?s purpose and direction
Since He came and filled my soul
Repeat chorus twice
