Alleluia! He is risen!
Let the holy anthems rise
Let the bells ring out the message
Easter Sunday signifies
Let each heart be filled with gladness
Unto Him let praises soar...for
In truth, He is our Savior
And he Lives forevermore.

Angels, Roll the Rock Away 

Angels, roll the rock away,
Death, yield up your mighty Prey.
See, the Savior leaves the tomb,
Glowing with immortal bloom,
Glowing with immortal bloom.

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled

Let not your heart be troubled let not your soul be sad
Easter is a time of joy when all hearts should be glad,
Glad to know that Jesus Christ made it possible for men
To have their sins forgiven and, like Him, to live again . . .
So at this joyous season may the wondrous Easter Story
Renew our Faith so we may be partakers of "His Glory!"

Rise Again

Go ahead, drive the nails in my hands
Laugh at me where you stand.
Go ahead and say it isn't me,
The day will come when you will see.
'Cause I'll rise again.
Ain't no power on earth can tie me down.
Oh yes, I'll rise again.
Death can't keep me in the ground.
Go ahead and mock my name,
My love for you is still the same.
Go ahead and bury me,
But very soon I will be free.
'Cause I'll rise again.
Ain't no power on earth can tie me down.
Yes, I'll rise again.
Death can't keep me in the ground.
Go ahead and say I'm dead and gone,
You will see that you were wrong.
Go ahead, try to hide the Son,
But all will see that I'm the one.
Because I'll rise again.
Ain't no power on earth can keep me back.
Yes, I'll rise again.
Come to take my people back.
And I'll come again.
There's no power on earth can tie me down.
Yes, I'll come again.
Death can't keep me in the ground.
~ Poem by Dallas Holmes

Because He Lives We, Too, Shall Live

In this restless world of struggle it is very hard to find
Answers to the questions that daily come to mind.
We cannot see the future, what’s beyond is still unknown,
For the secret of God’s kingdom still belongs to Him alone.
But He granted us salvation when His Son was crucified,
For life became immortal because our Saviour died.
Life is not a transient thing, It is change but never loss,
For Christ purchased our salvation When He died upon the Cross.
~ Helen Steiner Rice ~

Because

Because He emptied Himself of all but love, you can be filled.
Because His body was broken, your life can be whole.
Because His blood was shed, your sins can be forgiven.
Because He submitted to injustice, you can forgive.
Because He finished His Father's work, your life has worth.
Because He was forsaken, you will never be alone.
Because He was buried, you can be raised.
Because He lives, you don't have to be afraid.
Because He was raised, you can be strong.
Because He reached down to you,
you don't have to work your way up to Him.
Because His promises are always true, you can have Hope!

May the Joy of Easter, the Promise of Easter
and the Peace of Easter be with you now and Always!
