Man Sings Powerful Rendition of ‘Because He Lives’

Jon Wood sings moving rendition of ‘Because He Lives.’

Bill and Gloria Gaither wrote ‘Because He Lives’ back in 1971. They were waiting for their third baby to arrive during some uncertain times in America. They wondered what kind of world they were bringing their child into.

But then God reminded them of one powerful truth, Jesus lives. He conquered death and rose again. Because of that, we don’t have to fear what’s ahead. Paul reminds us of this hope, “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” (1 Corinthians 15:55).

Because He lives, we can face tomorrow. Because He lives, our future is secure. Jon’s performance is a beautiful reminder of that unshakable hope we have in Christ.

Verse of the Day

“For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!””

Luke 2:11-14
