RISEN LYRICS

I've had people ask for the lyrics. I don't usually do this, but sharing the message is my priority on this song. So here they are:

When darkness veiled the sky the day that Jesus died

In agony upon the bitter cross

They took His body down and laid it in a tomb

His friends believed that everything was lost. 

But when the third day came, the darkness turned to light

For Mary heard her name and saw the living Christ.

 

Risen

To set the captives free

Risen

To ransom you and me

To bind up every broken heart

To conquer death and sin.

Risen

To bring us home again.

 

And in that barren place the world forever changed

For hope was born when Jesus rose that day

And still His wounded hands reveal the love He has

For every fallen soul He came to save 

And He will come again, and one by one we’ll rise

To praise His holy name and see the living Christ

 

Risen

To set the captives free

Risen

To ransom you and me

To bind up every broken heart

To conquer death and sin.

Risen

To bring us home again.

 

Alleluia, He lives

Alleluia, He is

 

Risen

To set the captives free

Oh, He is risen

To ransom you and me

To bind up every broken heart

To conquer death and sin.

Risen

To bring us home again.

 

Risen

    My parents passed away last year, I was here in the USA, they lived in Venezuela, because of the socialism in Venezuela we can’t go there, it is very dangerous, I haven’t been able to go in the last 15 years, so I couldn’t kiss or hug my parents in 14 years, my mom passed away on june 30, 3 days later my dad passed away, it was the pain more strong in my life, they passed away with covid. This song helps me to remember that I will see them again. It reminds me to always remember that Jesus Christ did so much for us, That thanks to him we will live again and we will see each other again. Thank you, thank you, for this beautiful song. 💗🙏🏻🇻🇪🇺🇲

    I just heard your song Risen! What a beautiful song God gave you. He is risen and He set me free many years ago.
    God gave you a special talent. Thank you for sharing your song with us. Christ conquered death and sin, so that one day we will be with Him. Because He has Risen!
