He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

  • Hymn #159 "Christ the Lord is Risen Today"

    Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!

    Sons of men and angels say, Alleluia!

    Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

    Sing, ye heavens and earth reply, Alleluia!


    Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!

    Where, O Death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!

    Dying once He all doth save, Alleluia!

    Where thy victory, O Grave? Alleluia!


    Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!

    Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!

    Death in vain forbids Him rise, Alleluia!

    Christ hath opened Paradise, Alleluia!


    Soar we now where Christ has lead, Alleluia!

    Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!

    Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!

    Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!

  • Welcome and Prayer


    Hymn #161 "Crown Him with Many Crowns"

    Crown Him with many crowns, The Lamb upon His throne

    Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns all music but it's own

    Awake, my soul and sing of Him who died for thee

    And hail Him as they matchless King thro' all eternity


    Crown Him the Lord of life, who triumphed over the grave

    And rose victorious in the strife for those He came to save

    His glories now we sing who died and rose on high

    Who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die


    Crown Him the Lord of peace, whose power a scepter sways

    From pole to pole, that wars may cease, and all be prayer and praise

    His reign shall know no end, and round His pierced feet

    Fair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet


    Crown Him the Lord of love, behold His hands and side

    Those wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified

    All hail, Redeemer, hail! For Thou hast died for me

    Thy praise and glory shall not fail throughout eternity

    Fellowship - "To God Be the Glory"

    To God be the glory great things He hath done

    So loved He the world that He gave us His Son

    Who yielded His life an atonement for sin

    And opened the life-gate that all may go in


    Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice!

    Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice!

    O come to the Father, thro' Jesus the Son,

    And give Him the glory, great things He hath done

  • "Resurrecting"   

    The head that once was crowned with thorns

    Is crowned with glory now

    The Savior knelt to wash our feet

    Now at His feet we bow


    The One who wore our sin and shame

    Now robed in majesty

    The radiance of perfect love

    Now shines for all to see


    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King

    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King


    The fear that held us now gives way

    To Him who is our peace

    His final breath upon the cross

    Is now alive in me


    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King

    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King


    By Your Spirit I will rise from the ashes of defeat

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    In Your name I come alive to declare Your victory

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    (repeat)


    The tomb where soldiers watched in vain

    Was borrowed for three days

    His body there would not remain

    Our God has robbed the grave

    Our God has robbed the grave


    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King

    Your name, Your name is victory

    All praise will rise to Christ our King


    By Your Spirit I will rise from the ashes of defeat

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    In Your name I come alive to declare Your victory

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    The resurrected King is resurrecting me

    "O Praise the Name " 

    I cast my mind to Calvary

    Where Jesus bled and died for me

    I see His wounds, His hands, His feet

    My Savior on that cursed tree


    His body bound and drenched in tears

    They laid Him down in Joseph's tomb

    The entrance sealed by heavy stone

    Messiah still and all alone


    O praise the Name of the Lord our God

    O praise His Name forever-more

    For endless days, we will sing Your praise

    Oh Lord, oh Lord our God


    Then on the third at break of dawn

    The Son of Heaven rose again

    O trampled death, where is your sting

    The angels roar for Christ the King


    O praise the Name of the Lord our God

    O praise His Name forever-more

    For endless days, we will sing Your praise

    Oh Lord, oh Lord our God


    He shall return in robes of white

    The blazing sun shall pierce the night

    And I will rise among the saints

    My gaze transfixed on Jesus' face


    O praise the Name of the Lord our God

    O praise His Name forever-more

    For endless days, we will sing Your praise

    Oh Lord, oh Lord our God

    (repeat)

    Communion

  • Invitation #134 "Jesus Paid it All"

    I hear the Savior say, "Thy strength indeed is small

    Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all"

    Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe

    Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow


    Lord, now indeed I find Thy power and Thine alone

    Can change a leper's spots and melt the heart of stone

    Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe

    Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow


    For nothing good have I whereby Thy grace to claim

    Can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone

    Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe

    Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow


    And when, before the throne, I stand in Him complete

    "Jesus died my soul to save," my lips shall still repeat

    Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe

    Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow
