HE is not here . . . HE has risen !!

The cave in Israel thought to be the tomb of Jesus

"Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn
 of the first day of the week,
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary 
went to see the tomb.
... the angel said to the women,
"Do not be afraid,  
for I know that you seek Jesus 
who was crucified.

He is not here, for he has risen, 

as he said.  
Come, see the place where the LORD lay. 
Then go quickly and tell his disciples
that he has risen from the dead ...""



Door to the tomb in Israel
claimed to be that of Jesus
CHRIST AROSE
~Robert Lowry

Low in the grave He lay 
Jesus my Savior!
Waiting the coming day
Jesus my LORD!

Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes;
He arose a victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever 
with His saints to reign.
He arose!  He arose!
Hallelujah!  Christ arose!

Vainly they watch His bed
Jesus my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead
Jesus my LORD!

Inside the tomb - where they laid the body

Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes;
He arose a victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever 
with His saints to reign.
He arose!  He arose!
Hallelujah!  Christ arose!


Death cannot keep his prey,
Jesus my Savior!
He tore the bars away
Jesus my LORD!




Up from the grave He arose,

With a mighty triumph o'er His foes;

He arose a victor from the dark  domain,

And He lives forever with His saints to reign.

He arose!  He arose!  

Hallelujah! Christ arose!
