Celebrate (He Lives)

Hammond, Fred

I know He lives
I believe He lives
I’m sure He lives
I’m sure He lives
I know He lives
The Saviour lives
It’s time to celebrate
the Savior and His worth
Let’s shout because we know He lives
and we are certain,
His love has set us free,
our enemy’s defeated,
If with me you agree,
come on and lift up your hands.

Bridge
Everybody lift your hands
if you know that Jesus is worthy,
Open up and give Him praise
let’s do it in a hurry,
If you love Him let’s glorify
in the song and in the dance,
We know the Savior lives,
come and lift up your hands.
To understand just why we praise
let me tell you how it all went down

The news spread so very fast,
people came from miles around,
This would be the day
Christ would be crucified,
He took His last breath,
He hung His head and He died.
They took my Savior down
from off that rugged cross,
They laid Him in a tomb
it seemed all hope was truly lost,
But the third day came along
and brought the rhythm of life,
The stone was rolled away,
an angel proudly proclaimed,

Chorus

He lives, He lives,
Christ is risen just like He said,
Our Lord and Savior’s no longer dead,
Rejoice and celebrate!
He lives He lives Jesus is alive!
