He Has Risen (Tawddgyrch Cadwynog)
ON THE CROSS
He on the cross
was crucified
and Soldiers chide
with no remorse.
He could have called
many legions
He had options
as I recalled.
Nails in His hand
spears in His side
He stayed and died
just as He planned.
To save the lost
in this sick world
with love, behold
He paid the cost.
IN THE TOMB
In borrowed tomb
was Jesus laid
and soldiers stayed
for they presumed.
His friends would feign
steal Him away
because He say
"I'll rise again."
An Angel came
and moved the stone
grave clothes alone
remained the same.
Guards terrified
Jesus was gone
that Easter morn
and they all lied.
HE IS RISEN
On the third day
My Savior rose
now the world knows
He is the way.
He went to hell
and took the keys
the Saints release
broke satan's spell.
They saw Him rise
up in the air
and disappear
beyond the skies.
Now He's seated
with God above
He shared His love
It's completed.
