Bible Verse
“Because I live, ye shall live also.” John 14:19

Song Description

“Because He Lives” was written in 1971 by Bill Gaither and Gloria Gaither during a period of social unrest, cultural uncertainty, and personal challenge. The birth of their child in a troubled world led them to reflect deeply on the meaning of Christ’s resurrection. The hymn emerged as a declaration of resurrection-centered hope grounded in biblical assurance rather than changing circumstances.

The theology of the hymn is distinctly Christ-centered and eschatological. The resurrection is presented not merely as a historical event, but as a living reality that transforms fear into confidence and grants believers courage to face tomorrow. The refrain declares the central truth: the believer’s future is secure because Christ is alive. The final stanza anticipates the crossing of death’s river and the ultimate triumph over mortality.

The Hiligaynon version, “Kay Buhi Siya,” preserves this theological progression: incarnation, forgiveness, the empty tomb, present assurance, and future victory. It affirms that life has meaning and eternal value because Jesus lives.

Full Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dios nagpadala,
Anak Niya nga bugtong;
Jesus, Ginoong,
Manluluwas.
Nagkari Sya,
Sa Pagpatawad
Lulub-ngang walay sulod,
Nagpamatu-od.

[Chorus]
Kay Buhi Siya,
Masugata kong buwas;
Kay Buhi Siya,
Hadlok nadula.
Dughan napahamtang
Nian sa manunubos
Kabuhi ko - may bili gid,
Kay buhi Siya.

[Verse 2]
O katam-is
Ning balatyagon
Kalinong kag
Kalipayan
Atubangon
Pala-abuton
Nga may pagsalig sa Ginoo
Kay Buhi Siya

[Chorus]
Kay Buhi Siya,
Masugata kong buwas;
Kay Buhi Siya,
Hadlok nadula.
Dughan napahamtang
Nian sa manunubos
Kabuhi ko - may bili gid,
Kay buhi Siya.

[Verse 3]
Sadtong adlaw,
Tabukon kong suba;
Nian kasakit matapos na.
Kamatayon,
Di magmadinalag-on
Makita kong yang himaya,
Bangud buhi Siya.

[Chorus]
Kay Buhi Siya,
Masugata kong buwas;
Kay Buhi Siya,
Hadlok nadula.
Dughan napahamtang
Nian sa manunubos
Kabuhi ko - may bili gid,
Kay buhi Siya.

[Instrumental]

[Final Chorus]
Kay Buhi Siya,
Masugata kong buwas;
Kay Buhi Siya,
Hadlok nadula.
Dughan napahamtang
Nian sa manunubos
Kabuhi ko - may bili gid,
Kay buhi Siya.
