The Son has risen!


We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.


He was oppressed and afflicted, yet He did not open His mouth; He was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so He did not open His mouth... For He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.



Having loved His own who were in the world, He now showed them the full extent of His love.



Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!


It is finished.

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 



I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me. 



For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. 




Through the blood of Jesus... 

you were washed




If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old had gone, the new has come!




The Lamb will be our shepherd;




He will lead us to springs of living water. 









Death has been defeated! 

The Son has risen!





Love's redeeming work is done, 
fought the fight, the battle won!
Alleluia! 


The Son has risen!






Lives again our glorious King!
Where, oh death, is now thy sting? 
Once He died, our souls to save, 
Where thy victory, oh grave? 

Soar we now where Christ hath lead, 
following our exalted Head.
Made like Him, like Him we rise.
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies!
Alleluia!

The Son has risen!
