"HE'S ALIVE!"
"He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.
Come, see the place where the Lord lay."
(Matthew 28:6)
Jesus Christ, the Lord of all Creation,
the Mighty God and King
Came to ransom souls; it was His nature
and His proclivity
Giving was His genre, from the spoken word
of light and earth
So, it was fitting that He would come, in
the form of natural birth
But that was not the end; He had a plan
to suffer, and to die
It was the cruelest of pain and torture,
none could deny
His blood was promised and given, for
all men's redemption
It was a sacrifice of Glory, and none could
entail prevention
For the first time, the Angels were held
from the Holy One
This He must do alone; only He could pay
the price to atone
He died and was buried, amidst the torment,
the scowling, and the curses
It was fulfillment of prophecy, and the Bible's
written verses
But He knew Joy comes in the morning, the
third day ends His demise
The Lord of Lords would live, to welcome His
own created sunrise
The cross didn't kill Him; He died of
His own accord
That all would know and love Him, and
one day call Him Lord
He made a way for all humanity to live
eternally, and to survive
He conquered death, Hell and the grave;
Jesus Christ is alive!
