Easter Song

  

Praise He who is not dead

He is the King of kings

Come, offer up your fear and dread

Where Love transcends all things

Death conquers death, as Life

Breaks forth in ageless laud

Earth’s sepulchers of stone could not

Constrain the Lamb of God

Grief turns to joyful song

Come; see what He has said,

‘Why do you seek the Living One

Among these mortal dead’?

I AM. I AM. I AM.

His love would not withhold

From sinners lost, a Perfect Lamb

As Prophets long foretold

Yet thorn and scorn and foe

And Death could never claim

The Victory; Jesus arose

Ah, sing that sacred Name

For Death has conquered death

The veil twixt man and Priest

Is rend in two; He bids us come

To taste the marriage feast

Praise Him; He is alive

Jesus, Jesus receive

His love will rescue and forgive

All those who will believe

 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures...

1 Cor. 15:3-5 

Wishing each of you a  Blessed Easter Day.
