He

He, who died on the cross,
was buried in a cave
and now has rose again
for all mankind to save.
He, who suffered for our sin
and bore our stripes of pain;
We thank Him for New Life
and the chance to live again.

He, who rose from a sleep,
demanded storm be still
and the mighty ocean
obeyed the Master's will.
He, who walked upon the earth
and sits at God’s right hand;
We thank Him that our lives
are held within His command.

He, who speaks to our hearts,
spoke light into the dark
and from this our journey
to Heaven we'll embark.
He, who empowers angels
proclaim with trumpet sound;
We thank Him that in Death
no Believer shall be found.

Very well said and those last two lines make you think a bit..We thank Him that in Death
no Believer shall be found.

The sweetest sacrifice of all. Where would the world be if not for his sacrifice and love?
Thought provoking. Thankx

oh, Bob, gloriously powerful message! The angels have set it to music and are singing it at His throne in heaven! Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Your last lines were indeed wrought by His hand, for a double, and sometimes triple take, is what is required when we deal with realities, and then remember, what is really the Truth...

Well done, Bob!
