Because He Lives

[Margies3]

Up From the Grave He Arose
with a mighty triumph o'er His foes.
He arose the victor from the dark domain
and He lives forever with His saints to reign.
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!

I love this old song....I used to sing it out of the Cokesbury Hymnal at the Methodist Church as a child. (Gasp, huh?)

"HE LIVES"

1. I serve a risen Savior, He's in the world today;
I know that He is living, whatever men may say.
I see his hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer
and, just the time I need Him, He's always near.

Refrain
He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today!
He lives, He lives
He walks with me and talks with me along life's narrow way.
He lives, He lives salvation to impart!
He lives, He lives
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart.

2. In all the world around me I see His loving care,
And tho' my heart grows weary, I never will despair.
I know that He is leading thro' all the stormy blast;
The day of His appearing will come at last.

Refrain

3. Rejoice, rejoice, O Christians, lift up your voice and sing
eternal halellujahs to Jesus Christ the King!
The Hope of all who seek Him, the Help of all who find,
None other is so loving, so good and kind.

Refrain

I don't do 'easter' (ishtar,oestra)...

I do celebrate the Resurrection though, so "My Redeemer Lives" would be one of the songs that fits it... Maybe "God With Us" as well...

Because He Lives & My Redeemer Lives

Another Oldie, but Goodie...I think this was one by Ron Hinson.

THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE

NOW THERE ARE NO SIGN OF THE CROSSES
BUT HISTORY RECORDS THERE WERE THREE
TWO STOOD BECAUSE---OF MEN'S BROKEN LAWS
BUT I KNOW THE OTHER----STOOD THERE FOR ME
I DID'NT KNOW PETER OR JUDAS,
BUT I'VE KNOW THE SHAME OF THEIR CRIMES
I'M SO GLAD JESUS DID--DIE IN MY STEAD
BUT THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE---SHOULD HAVE BEEN MINE

I NEVER DESERVED THE MERCY
OR MERITED SO MUCH GRACE
AND THIS UNWORTHY MAN-CAN'T UNDERSTAND
WHY THAT MAN OF NO WRONG, TOOK MY RIGHTFUL PLACE
AND IF YOU EVER STOPPED AT CALV'RY
THE BLOOD ISN'T ALL YOU WILL FIND
FOR YOU'D FEEL IT TOO,
WHY I FEEL LIKE I DO
THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE--SHOULD HAVE BEEN MINE

I NEVER HEARD THE HAMMER, I NEVER FELT THE NAILS
I NEVER SAW--THE ANGRY MOB-CURSE AS THE PRISONERS FELL
THEY NEVER KNEW THIS SINNER
I WAS SOME OTHER PLACE AND TIME
THE CHOICE WAS ALL HIS
BUT THE TRUTH WAS AND IS
THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE--SHOULD HAVE BEEN MINE

TAG:

THE CHOICE WAS ALL HIS
BUT THE TRUTH WAS AND IS
THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE --SHOULD HAVE BEEN MINE

I HOPE THIS IS THE ONE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!!! GOD BLESS!
