Easter Set


Here are the songs that we sang on Easter Sunday. I tried to have us sing songs that emphasized Christ's resurrection, but also our resurrection that is promised as result of his rising (Col. 2:12).

Here is the set (all links are iTunes):

1. Christ the Lord is Risen Today - Of course

2. When I Think About The Lord - It has the line "how he saved us, how he raised us"

3. Everlasting God - Jesus shows that he is everlasting first and foremost because of his resurrection

4. Jesus Paid it All - In this new version from Passion, there is an added chorus that says "Praise the one who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead"

5. In Christ Alone - Has the powerful line, "There in the ground his body lay, light of the world by darkness slain, then bursting forth in glorious day, up from the grave he rose again."

6. Before the Throne of God Above - This new arrangement from Shane and Shane (which I love) has a new added chorus that says, "Hallelujah, hallelujah, praise the One, risen Son of God!"
