He is RISEN!

HALLELUJAH!! He is Risen Indeed! I just get chills when we sing the songs on Easter morning, this is one of them:

Low in the grave He lay, Jesus my Savior,
Waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes,
He arose a Victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever, with His saints to reign.
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Vainly they watch His bed, Jesus my Savior;
Vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

Death cannot keep its Prey, Jesus my Savior;
He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

I pray that you have the hope, triumph and victory over death that is the gift of salvation!
May your heart be open to His gift today if you haven't received it already! (pasting some resurrection references for you)
John 20
Matthew 28
Mark 16:1-6
Luke 24
Have a blessed Easter day!

Back on track!

Well after a busy week with company we are getting back on track today!
Great morning of school and a FEAST on God's Word for our lunch:

Psalm 23

John 11:1-45 (the raising of Lazarus)

you probably know both of these passages very well so I won't copy them in, but you can follow the link if you'd like -- We enjoyed reading especially the Psalm in different versions.

We also learned another hymn today "God Be With You Until We Meet Again" it seemed to go along very well with the shepherd idea! here is the first verse (you can listen if you click the link)

God be with you till we meet again;
By His counsels guide, uphold you,
With His sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.

Refrain Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.

We have a post with pictures in the works -- mom made us work on school first :(
