Believe It!!
And Base Your Whole Life Around That Truth!
(We did a human video drama of this song for Fine Arts Competition several years ago…)
So Powerful!!
John 19:35
“The man who saw it
has given testimony,
and his testimony is true.
He knows that he tells the truth,
and he testifies so that you also may believe.”
The gates and doors were barred
And all the windows fastened down
I spent the night in sleeplessness
And rose at every sound
Half in hopeless sorrow
And half in fear the day
Would find the soldiers breakin’ through
To drag us all away
And just before the sunrise
I heard something at the wall
The gate began to rattle
And a voice began to call
I hurried to the window
Looked down into the street
Expecting swords and torches
And the sound of soldiers’ feet
But there was no one there but Mary
So I went down to let her in
John stood there beside me
As she told me where she’d been
She said they might have moved Him in the night
And none of us knows where
The stone’s been rolled away
And now His body isn’t there
We both ran toward the garden
Then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty tomb
Just the way that Mary said
But the winding sheet they wrapped Him in
Was just an empty shell
And how or where they’d taken Him
Was more than I could tell
Oh, something strange had happened there
Just what I did not know
John believed a miracle
But I just turned to go
Circumstance and speculation
Couldn’t lift me very high
‘Cause I’d seen them crucify Him
Then I saw Him die
Back inside the house again
The guilt and anguish came
Everything I’d promised Him
Just added to my shame
When at last it came to choices
I denied I knew His Name
And even if He was Alive
It wouldn’t be the same
But, suddenly the air was filled
With a strange and sweet perfume
Light that came from everywhere
Drove the shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me
With His arms held open wide
And I fell down on my knees
And I just clung to Him and cried
Then He raised me to my feet
And as I looked into His eyes
The love was shining out from Him
Like sunlight from the skies
Guilt in my confusion
Disappeared in sweet release
And every fear I’d ever had
Just melted into peace
He’s Alive! Yes, He’s Alive!
Yes, He’s Alive, and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s Alive! Yes, He’s Alive!
Oh ,He’s Alive, and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s Alive! Yes, He’s Alive!
Hallelujah!! He’s Alive!
He’s Alive, and I’m forgiven
Heaven’s gates are open wide
He’s Alive! He’s Alive! He’s Alive!
I believe it!! He’s Alive!
Sweet Jesus!!
John 20:19
“On the evening of that first day of the week,
when the disciples were together,
with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders,
Jesus came
and stood among them and said,
‘Peace be with you!’
After He said this,
He showed them His hands and side.
The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.”
Acts 1:8-11
“But you will receive power
when the Holy Spirit comes on you;
and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem,
and in all Judea and Samaria,
and to the ends of the earth.
After He said this,
He was taken up before their very eyes,
and a cloud hid Him from their sight.
They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going,
when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
‘Men of Galilee,’
they said,
‘why do you stand here looking into the sky?
This same Jesus,
who has been taken from you into Heaven,
will come back
in the same way you have seen Him go into Heaven.’”
Acts 2:33
“Exalted to the right hand of God,
He has received from the Father
the promised Holy Spirit
and has poured out
what you now see and hear.”
Revelation 1:18
“I am the Living One;
I was dead,
and now look,
I am alive for ever and ever!
And I hold the keys of death and Hades.”
He’s Our Risen Savior!
Allow Jesus To Be Alive In Your Life!!
Amen!
