Happy Day

The greatest day in history, death is beaten, You have rescued me
Sing it out, Jesus is alive!
The empty cross, the empty grave, Life eternal, You have won the day
Shout it all, Jesus is alive! He´s alive!

 Chorus: Oh happy day, happy day – You washed my sin away
Oh happy day, happy day – I’ll never be the same
Forever I am changed

When I stand, in that place, free at last, meeting face to face
I am Yours, Jesus, You are mine
Endless joy, perfect peace, earthly pain finally will cease
Celebrate Jesus is alive! He’s alive!

Bridge: Oh what a glorious day, what a glorious way, That You have saved me
Oh what a glorious day, what a glorious name!

Christ is Risen

Let no one caught in sin remain, inside the lie of inward shame
But fix our eyes upon the cross, and run to Him who showed great love
And bled for us, freely You’ve bled for us

Chorus:  Christ is risen from the dead, Trampling over death by death
Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave!
Christ is risen from the dead, We are one with Him again
Come awake come awake! Come and rise up from the grave!

Beneath the weight of all our sin You bowed to none but heaven’s will
No scheme of hell no scoffer’s crown, no burden great can hold You down
In strength You reign, forever let Your church proclaim

Bridge:  O death, where is your sting? O hell, where is your victory?
O church, come stand in the light! The glory of God has defeated the night!
Singing, O death, where is your sting? O hell, where is your victory?
O church come stand in the light! Our God is not dead! He’s alive! He’s alive!

O Praise the Name

I cast my mind to Calvary, where Jesus bled and died for me
I see His wounds His hands His feet, my Savior on that cursed tree

His body bound and drenched in tears, they laid Him down in Joseph’s tomb
The entrance sealed by heavy stone, Messiah still and all alone

Chorus: O praise the Name of the Lord our God, O praise His Name forevermore
For endless days we will sing Your praise, Oh Lord, oh Lord our God

Then on the third at break of dawn, the Son of heaven rose again
O trampled death, where is your sting? The angels roar for Christ the King!

He shall return in robes of white, the blazing sun shall pierce the night
And I will rise among the saints, my gaze transfixed on Jesus’ face

Forever (We Sing Hallelujah)

The moon and stars they wept, the morning sun was dead,
The Savior of the world was fallen
His body on the cross, His blood poured out for us
The weight of every curse upon Him

One final breath He gave, as heaven looked away
The Son of God was laid in darkness
A battle in the grave, the war on death was waged
The power of hell forever broken

Pre-Chorus:  The ground began to shake, the stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death, where is your sting?
Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated

Chorus: Forever He is glorified
Forever He is lifted high
Forever He is risen
He is alive, He is alive!

Bridge:  We sing hallelujah we sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah, the Lamb has overcome!

And now death, where is your sting?
Our resurrected King has overcome
He’s overcome, oh

Christ the Lord is Risen Today

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
Sons of men and angels say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heavens, and earth, reply, Alleluia!

Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Once He died our souls to save, Alleluia!
Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

Love’s redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids His rise, Alleluia!
Christ hath opened paradise, Alleluia!

Soar we now where Christ hath led, Alleluia!
Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!
Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!
