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.

Shawna, I am so much blessed today with the very touching lyrics and the singing of your song. How I wish we could sing it in our choir this Easter Sunday to give wonderful message and introduce your song to God’s people. I am from the remote part in the Philippines. I will be very greatful if you can share to us the music piece. May the Lord powerfully use your songs to bless hearts.
