He Is Risen

Jesus of Nazareth, the man of many miracles 
Fully God who came to take the flesh of fools 
The Man who came to fulfill the prophecy
Many knew the words, but so few could truly see
The truth that stood in front of them
God in human skin
The Man who allowed the blind to see, the crippled to walk 
Cleansed the lepers, and allowed the mute to talk 
Given God's command since His birth 
To bring Heaven's kingdom to earth 
Birthed from a virgin, bestowed God's only son 
Coming down to earth so God's will could be done 
Living a life full of temptation
Showing us what it looked like to live a life of perfection
Even with knowledge of Judas' betrayal 
And knowing He was seen through eyes of denial 
Knowing all the torture He'd go through 
He never flinched because He so loved me and you 
And even as He was nailed to the cross 
Not a single ounce of love was lost 
For as He took His final breath 
And as he reached of the brink of death 
He still cried out with precision 
He cried out for us to be forgiven 
For we do not know what we have done 
That we had just killed off our God, His son 
But three days later, when His tomb was visited 
Mary came to discover that He had risen 
Our King once again walked the land 
Showing that even death was under His command 
Our Lord, our Savior is risen 
And new life we are given 
Our Lord is risen 
And all our sins are forgiven 
Our Lord is risen 
And we are no longer controlled by sin
We are set free 
We are set free 
For our Lord is risen 
He is risen
