As I left work this morning at 7:00 a.m. the sun was bursting into view on the eastern horizon prompting these words as the Son rose in my heart:
Jesus is risen, the angels announced it,
Jesus is risen, He's no longer dead;
Jesus is risen, redemption completed,
Jesus is risen, the glad tidings spread!
Jesus is risen, death has been conquered,
Jesus is risen, our soon-coming King;
Jesus is risen, new life He has given,
Jesus is risen, His praises now sing!
Dear friends...we serve a risen Savior! He is alive for evermore!
HALLELUJAH!
Yes He deserves all of our praises Pilgrim David!!
ReplyDeleteMajestic sweetness sits enthroned
Upon the Savior's brow;
His head with radiant glories crowned,
His lips with grace o'erflow.
No mortal can with Him compare
Among the sons of men;
Fairer is He than all the fair
That fill the heavenly train.
To Him I owe my life and breath,
And all the joys I have;
He makes me triumph over death,
And saves me from the grave.
To God, the Father, my abode,
He brings my weary feet;
Shows me the glories of my God,
And makes my joys complete.
Since from His bounty I receive
Such proofs of love divine,
Had I a thousand hearts to give,
Lord, they should all be Thine.
He is risen; He is risen, indeed!!!
ReplyDeleteNice picture David....... Up from the grave He arose, With a mighty triumph o'er His foes!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes I was at the Easter Conference on Friday, too bad we missed eachother, next time!
Pilgrim,
ReplyDeleteI love the photo! Perfect for the occasion!
LauraMae, I am sooo glad to see you over here! Did those threats from Pilgrim work? Are you scared of that wet noodle?! And, would you believe that I thought of those same words you wrote there, when I saw that photo. ;) I hope you stay around, LauraMae, I've missed you lately.
Love and Prayers,
LPP
The older I get, the more glorious the news! Hope your Easter was filled with much joy over our risen Savior!
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
