Christ The Lord Is Risen Today
Where, O death, is your victory? Where, o death, is your sting?
1cor.15:55
Christ the lord is ris’n to-day
Al-le-lu-ia!
Sons of men and angels say:
Al-le-lu-ia!
Raise your joys and triumphs
high Al-le-lu-ia!
Sing ye heav’ns and earth
reply: Al-le-lu-ia!
Lives a-gain our glo-rious king,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Where, O death is now thy sting?
Al-le-lu-ia!
Dy-ing once he all doth save,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Where thy vic-to-ry, O grave?
Al-le-lu-ia!
Love’s re-deem-ing work is done,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Fought the fight the bat-tle won,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Death in vain for-bids him rise,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Christ has opened par-a-dise,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Soar we now where Christ has led,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Fol-l’wing our ex-alt-ed Head,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Made like him, like him we rise,
Al-le-lu-ia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the
skies
Al-le-lu-ia!
CHRIST AROSEIt was impossible for death to
keep its hold on Him. Acts 2:24
Low in the grave He lay,
Jesus my Savior!
Waiting the coming day,
Jesus my Lord!
CHORUS
Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes;
He a rose a Victor from
the dark domain,
CHORUS
And He lives for ever
with his saints to reign,
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose.
Vainly they watch His bed,
Jesus my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead,
Jesus my Lord!
CHORUS
Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes;
He a rose a Victor from
the dark domain,
CHORUS
And He lives for ever
with his saints to reign,
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose.
Death Cannot keep his prey,
Jesus my Savior!
He tore the bars away,
Jesus my Lord!
CHORUS
Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes;
He a rose a Victor from
the dark domain,
CHORUS
And He lives for ever
with his saints to reign,
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose.
Power In The Blood
They overcame Him by the blood of the Lamb.
Rev. 12:11
Would you be free
from the burden of sin?
There’s pow’r in the blood
pow’r in the blood;
Would you o’er evil
a victory win?
There’s wonderful power
in the blood
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the precious blood
of the Lamb;
Would you be free from
your passion and pride
There’s pow’r in the blood
pow’r in the blood;
Come for a cleansing to
Calvary’s tide?
There’s wonderful
Power in the blood
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the precious blood
of the Lamb;
Would you be whiter,
much whiter than snow?
There’s pow’r in the blood
pow’r in the blood;
Sin stains are lost in its
life giving flow;
There’s wonderful
Power in the blood
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the precious blood
of the Lamb;
Would you do service
for Jesus your King?
There’s pow’r in the blood
pow’r in the blood;
Would you live daily
His praises to sing?
There’s wonderful
power in the blood
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is pow’r, pow’r,
Wonder working pow’r
In the precious blood
of the Lamb;
Praise God from whom all
blessings flow; Praise Him,
all creatures here below;
Praise Him above,
ye heav’n-ly host; Praise Father,
Son and Holy Ghost.
John 20: 1 – 9
Early on Sunday morning,
while it was still dark, Mary
Magdalene came to the tomb
and found that the stone had
been rolled away from the
entrance. 2 She ran and found
Simon Peter and the other
disciple, the one whom Jesus
loved. She said, “They have
taken the Lord’s body out of
the tomb, and we don’t know
where they have put him!”
• 3 Peter and the other disciple
started out for the tomb. 4 They were both running,
but the other disciple outran
Peter and reached the tomb
first. 5 He stooped and
looked in and saw the linen
wrappings lying there, but
he didn’t go in. 6 Then Simon
Peter arrived and went
inside. He also noticed the
linen wrappings lying there, 7 while the cloth that had
covered Jesus’ head was
folded up and lying apart
from the other wrappings. 8 Then the disciple who had
reached the tomb first also
went in, and he saw and
believed— 9 for until then
they still hadn’t understood
the Scriptures that said
Jesus must rise from the
dead.

HYMN OF PROMISE
In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise;
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there’s a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
BECAUSE HE LIVES
Because I live, you also will live
John 14:19
God sent His Son,
they called Him Jesus,
He came to love, heal, and forgive;
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove
my Savior lives
Because He lives
I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just
because He lives
How sweet to hold a newborn baby
And feel the pride, and joy he gives
But greater still the calm assurance
This child can face uncertain days
because He lives
Because He lives
I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just
because He lives
And then one day I’ll cross the river,
I’ll fight life’s final war with pain;
And then as death
gives way to victory,
I’ll see the lights of glory and
I’ll know He lives
Because He lives I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just
because He lives
