Reviews
Displaying the top 10 out of 12 reviews for "Because He Lives"We are singing this song on Easter and I was looking for a arrangement instead of just singing it out of the hymn book. This one is not too hard, but gives some nice background to the melody. It doesnt stray too far from the melody, though, making it easy enough for the congregation to sing along.
Cindy_Brown
This is a beautiful arrangement of a favorite Gaither Gospel tune.
Yvonne_McDonald
This is a fabulous song! One of the qualities of Gaither Family music that has always appealed to me is the wonderful piano accompaniment. I would highly recommend this arrangement - there is nothing else to say except: it is beautiful.
Debra_V_Temple
I needed this in the key of C. Just what I needed.
Samuel_Eberwein
Beautiful arrangement that could be used as vocal accompaniment or as a piano solo.
JoAn_Miller
I wanted a more showy arrangment of this, and Ive found it! It works well to accompany a soloist, but its beautiful on its own. Perfect arrangement of a great Gaither song.
