The song is based on John 11:25

I am the resurrection & the Life
He who believes in Me will never die! (repeat)
A Em A Em / C D C Em (repeat)
I have come to bring the Truth
I have come to bring you Life:
If you believe, then you shall live.
G D Em - (2x) G D C A
In my Word all men shall come to know -
It is love which makes the spirit grow:
If you believe, then you shall live.
Keep in mind the things that I have said
Remember me in the breaking of the bread:
If you believe, then you shall live.
