Alleluia! Christ is Risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!
Today is truly a glorious day! The dread of Friday is past, the silence of Saturday is shattered with amazing news. Jesus Christ lives! The hopes of Palm Sunday are restored, but made anew and entirely pure. Now is a time to celebrate the Risen Savior!
Where is my Lord?
They have taken Him away.
All I see is a tomb, a place that is empty.
And just when I need Him,
and long for His voice,
even His body would not wait for my tears.
Shut away in a box, He has conquered their coffin.
Shut away in a book, He fulfills, Living Word.
Shut away in our concepts, He shatters such shackles.
No prison can hold Him; no tomb thwart the miracle.
His life is our liberty; His love changed my life.
No dying can rob me of what He has given:
once blind, now I see.
Hallelujah! His promise:
‘In the day when the hearts of men
fail them for fear,
then look up, little flock,
your redemption draws near.’
Let all creation
gives thanks to the Risen Lord.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord!
Filled with His praises,
give thanks to the Risen Lord.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord!
He is our Shepherd, and we are His sheep.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord!
Stepping out boldly, we claim resurrection.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord.
Give thanks to the Risen Lord!
