On the darkest day of all the Light of all the world
was crowned with thorns and lifted on a cross.
Forsaken and alone, the Son became our sin,
surrendering His life for love of us.
Then the darkness of the tomb was shattered by the Son,
the grave could not contain His radiant light.
The stone was rolled away, death's victory reversed
In Christ the resurrection and the life.
Christ was raised, never to die again,
and he reigns in everlasting light.
We are saved, forever we'll live in him
for we share his resurrection life.
In the darkness of this world the hope of glory shines.
The shadows of this age will pass away.
His triumph is assured, our future is secure,
for Jesus rose to life on Easter Day.
Christ was raised, never to die again,
and he reigns in everlasting light.
We are saved, forever we'll live in him
for we share his resurrection life.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Jesus is alive.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Jesus is alive.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Jesus is alive.
Christ was raised, never to die again,
and he reigns in everlasting light.
We are saved, forever we'll live in him
for we share his resurrection life.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Jesus is alive.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Jesus is alive.
