What The Lord Wants From Us

Say HiJESUS ROSE TO LIFEIf Jesus be dead, in the grip of a tombThere’d be nothing for us but fear and doomLife would be sad, with no way to copeDeath would reign all, without any hopeIf Jesus be dead, in the grip of a tombWe’ll have no future, only dark and gloomNo life after death, no eternity in sight,No hope, no joy, no Saviour, no light.But…. (And aren’t we thankful there is a “but”)But thanks be to God, Jesus rose to life.The debt all paid, though sin was rifeHis body lay in the tomb three daysThen up from the grave his life was raised.Yes, thanks be to God, Jesus rose to life.He conquered death, all sin and strife.To those who believe, from death set freeWith hope, with joy, their Saviour to see by John R.
