He Is Risen

The coming of the Lord was foretold From the beginning of the truth God was preparing the way For His son Jesus to be our sacrifice to fulfill the pathway of life Not because we deserve but by His grace and love Through Him all debt has been paid For those who believe inherit wealth overflowing treasures in thy heart released from bondage The world did not recognize Jesus For their lack of seeking had them blind confusion upon the wicked Jesus brought forth the word to dwell within He gave His life so we could gain life To be crucified a criminals death but yet He knew not sin The people placed Jesus in a tomb and rolled a stone in front of it and guarded it for three days in attempt to hold Him in the grave putting a hold on the truth by putting Him to death not seeing it was prophecy being fulfilled In this day the Heavens rejoiced An angel rolled away the stone Jesus had abandoned the grave death was defeated on that day He is risen and prepared a table we now have access from a clean cup to drink while feasting on the bread of life Calling upon the Lord with a broken spirit seeking His will wholeheartedly Crucifying the old self Allowing the Lord to guide In order that he might rise
