Up From the Grave He Arose!

Scripture Reading: Luke 24:1-9
Scripture Focus: Luke 24:6

“He is not here, but He has risen. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee…”

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!

It is resurrection Sunday. No body is to be found, no stone seals the door of the tomb, death has no hold on our Lord anymore. “Oh death, where is your sting?” Christ has ended our fear of life no more, for in His resurrection, our death will bring true life. Therefore, may a song of resurrection always be found on our lips, praising the One that arose. And take heed, for although He is not here, He has promised us that if He went to prepare a place for us, He would surely return.

He lives! He lives!
Christ Jesus lives today.
He walks with me and talks with me
Along life’s narrow way.
He lives! He lives!
Salvation to impart.
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart!
