Jesus is the resurrection and the life BY– Marina Zakary
We hold the cross close to our heart As your precious body is torn apart Seeing your blood-stained wooden cross As Mary weeps over her loss
Jesus bore the stripes of pain So that forgiveness of sins we can gain But hope still doesn’t fade away “Our Saviour is powerful” the people pray
On the Sunday, very early morning Without any signal or warning As the guards slumber in their sleep A strong movement awoke them so they leap
There was a powerful and moving sound That trembled and shook the ground The stone was rolled away from the empty tomb Declaring the rebirth from this gloom
His luminous light filled the land His resurrection is so grand He opened the gates of paradise Because with His love He paid the price
Resurrection is my happy song With His mighty power, He defeated all wrong Jesus is the resurrection and the life I’ve seen your mercy and love’s rife
We celebrate Jesus Christ’s resurrection Which gave our lives meaning and direction We received Christ in our heart Sin’s gap can no longer take us apart
