Religion

Resurrection Glory

The tomb was sealed, the guards in place
But on the third day, a wondrous pace
A light shone forth, the stone was rolled
And Jesus rose, death could not hold

With joyful hearts we sing and praise
The Lord of Life, who conquered the grave
Our sins forgiven, our hope restored
All because of Christ our Lord

Let us lift our voices in holy word
And give thanks to our dear Lord
For He has shown us love so true
And made all things beautiful and new

Religion

Life in Christ

In Christ alone, our hope and peace
His love for us will never cease
By grace alone we are saved
Through faith in Him we are remade

No longer bound by sin and strife
We have a new and endless life
Walking in the light of His Word
Our hearts with joy and peace are stirred

May we live each day with His grace
And follow Him all of our days
The path may not always be clear
But our trust in Him will never fear

With grateful hearts we sing His praise
For all of our eternal days
Our risen Lord, our risen King
Forevermore we'll praise and sing

Long Poems

The Risen King

In early morn of the third day,
The tomb was found to be empty, they say.
Of Jesus, the Christ, who died for us all,
To redeem us from sin, He did answer the call.

The women who came to anoint His head,
Were the first to see the stone rolled back and instead,
Of a body, an angel inside did say,

Religion

He is not here, He's risen today!

The Disciples, too, would soon come to know,
Of the miracle that had taken place below.
For Jesus Himself would appear to them,
Revealing the truth, dispelling their fears.

He showed them His hands and pierced side,
Proof that He really did die,
But Death could not hold Him in its grip,
For He conquered the grave with His own blood dip.

So let us raise our voices in praise,
To the One who has overcome and saved,
For Jesus, the Risen King, reigns on high,
And through Him, we can have eternal life!

The Resurrection: A Christian Easter Poem

The stone was rolled away, and there was the tomb,
Empty, the body of Christ had arisen, without any gloom,
He had conquered death and sin, He had won the fight,
For He is the Son of God, full of power and might.

Sorrow had filled their hearts, as they grieved the loss,
Of the One who had healed and loved, without any cost,
But just as He had promised, He came back to life,
Defeating the darkness, bringing hope and light.

Mary wept at the tomb, not knowing where He had gone,
But then she heard His voice, and her heart was drawn,
To the risen Lord, who had paid the price,
To save the world, with His own sacrifice.

The disciples were amazed, when they saw Jesus appear,
For they had locked themselves away, in fear and despair,
But He came to them, and showed His wounds,
Proving that He had risen, that He had conquered the tomb.

The message of Easter, is that death has no hold,
On those who believe, in the One who is bold,
For Jesus Christ, the King of Kings,
Is our Savior, who gives us wings.

So let us celebrate, the Resurrection of our Lord,
Who conquered death, and gave us a reward,
Of eternal life, in a place beyond compare,
Where we will be with Him, forevermore, in His love, with no despair.
