[Verse 1]
We get tired, we canʼt win
We were dead in our sin
But thereʼs a hope, a new life
The pressureʼs off, because Jesus Christʼs alive

[Pre-Chorus]
So we can rejoice
Though weʼre grieved by various trials for a little while
Because a genuine faith under testing
Brings honor and glory to our great King

[Chorus]
By Godʼs great mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive
Our living hope is in our inheritance
Because Jesus Christ is alive
No grip of fear, no sting in death
By His mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive

[Verse 2]
We donʼt have to bear the load
We donʼt have to have control
We are free from guilt and shame
Because when He rose, He left death in itʼs grave

[Pre-Chorus]
So we can rejoice
Though weʼre grieved by various trials for a little while
Because a genuine faith under testing
Brings honor and glory to our great King

[Chorus]
By Godʼs great mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive
Our living hope is in our inheritance
Because Jesus Christ is alive
No grip of fear, no sting in death
By His mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive

No grip of fear, no sting in death
Because Jesus Christ is alive
Weʼre free from guilt, weʼre free from shame
Because Jesus Christ is alive
Weʼre free to live for Jesusʼ fame
Because Jesus Christ is alive

[Chorus]
By Godʼs great mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive
Our living hope is in our inheritance
Because Jesus Christ is alive
No grip of fear, no sting in death
By His mercy we have been born again
Because Jesus Christ is alive
