EASTER MORN
As I lay in bed this morning, I couldn't move. I was so exhausted that I couldn't even imagine trying to get up to face the day, even though it was such a celebratory day like Resurrection Sunday. And that reminded me of two old Keith Green songs. I've written the entire lyrics to the first song (which is VERY appropriate for Easter) and the SUPER poignant four lines from the other. I really encourage you to read them, think about them, and let them inspire you.
Easter Song
Here the bells ringing
They`re singing that you can be born again
Here the bells ringing
They`re singing Christ is risen from the dead
The angel up on the tombstone
Said He has risen, just as He said
Quickly now, go tell his disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Joy to the word, He has risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah
Hear the bells ringing
They`re singing that you can be healed right now
Hear the bells ringing, they`re singing
Christ, He will reveal it now
The angels, they all surround us
And they are ministering Jesus` power
Quickly now, reach out and receive it
For this could be your glorious hour
Joy to the world, He has risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah, hallelujah
The angel up on the tombstone
Said He has risen, just as He said
Quickly now, go tell his disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Joy to the world, He has risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah
He`s risen, hallelujah
Hallelujah
Asleep In The Night
Jesus rose from the grave
And you, you can't even get out of bed!
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead
Come on get out of your bed!!!
