RESURRECTION
The
first day of the week broke with Heaven’s glorious light.
Looking at the
beauty you would never know there had been a fight.
Three
days before, GOD’s Son, Jesus, had been killed.
Crucified upon a cross, on Golgotha’s horrid hill.
All
the powers of evil thought that they had won.
They knew they had succeeded in
destroying GOD’s only Son.
Never
again would He show His Father’s love for fallen man.
They were so proud they had finally stopped
Salvation’s plan.
Oh,
but when JESUS showed up knocking at death’s door,
All hell began to
tremble, death had lost its power forever more!
Jesus
was the victor, over death, hell and the grave.
He
was the final sacrifice for mankind to be saved.
The
words He spoke are still the same as they were back then:
“I AM the Resurrection and the
Life, believe on me and you shall live again!”

…I
am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me,
though he were
dead, yet shall he live:
