Introduction:

                                 G#             Ab7         C#        
Deus enviou seu Filho amado
                                 G#   Fm7                       Bbm7       Eb7 
Pra perdoar,         pra me salvar.
                                         G#             Ab7             C#          
Na cruz morreu por meu pecado,
                                       G#     Fm7   Bb7       Eb7         E   C# 
Mas ressurgiu e vivo     com o Pai está.
                                       G#   Ab7                                       C#                  
Porque Ele vive,     posso crer no amanhã.
                                       G#   Fm7                             F#   D# 
Porque Ele vive,           temor não há.
               Eb7               G#     F#   Ab/C     Ab7                         C#        
Mas eu bem sei,     eu                 sei,     que a minha vida
                                 G#             Fm7           Bbm7           Eb7         E     C# 
Está nas mãos de meu Jesus, que vivo está.
                                           G#   Ab7                 C#        
E quando, enfim, chegar a hora
                                 G#           Fm7                   Bbm7       Eb7 
Em que a morte         enfrentarei,
                   G#                       Fm7         Bb7             Eb7         E   C# 
Irei à Glória, ao meu Jesus que vivo esta.
