Gift #1126: Happy Easter 2018

Happy Easter everyone and welcome to April.  It’s snowing right now…. I won’t spend time discoursing about how that seems antithetical to Easter, that’s just how it goes.  But one of the wonderful aspects of Easter is that it is not tied to circumstances.  Easter gives us a reason to rejoice and hope even in the most difficult of situations.  The first Easter Sunday could hardly have been birthed in darker times, and yet out of the death of the Son of God,  came the rescue of the world.

Each Easter I share a song to commemorate the day.  This year’s song is one that our choir sang for church this weekend.  It is called “All Hail King Jesus” and you can see the song performed on youtube here.

There was a moment when the lights went out
When death had claimed its victory
The King of love had given up His life
The darkest day in history

There on a cross they made for sinners
For every curse His blood atoned
One final breath and it was finished
But not the end we could have known

For the earth began to shake, and the veil was torn
What sacrifice was made, as the heavens roared

All hail, King Jesus
All hail the Lord of heaven and earth
All hail, King Jesus
All hail the Savior of the world

There was a moment when the sky lit up
A flash of light breaking through
When all was lost He crossed eternity
The King of life was on the move

For in a dark, cold tomb, where our Lord was laid
One miraculous breath, and we’re forever changed

All hail, King Jesus
All hail the Lord of heaven and earth
All hail, King Jesus
All hail the Savior of the world

Let every knee, come bow before the King of kings
Let every tongue, confess that He is Lord
Lift up your shout, let us join with all of heaven
Singing holy
Singing holy
Crying out holy
Singing holy

All hail, King Jesus
All hail the Lord of heaven and earth
And all hail, King Jesus
All hail the Savior of the world

Happy Easter!  He is risen!!
