“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today”
ExpandChrist the Lord is risen today! Alleluia!
All creation, join to say; Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high; Alleluia!
Sing, O heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!
Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won; Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids Him rise; Alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise. Alleluia!
Lives again our glorious King; Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now your sting? Alleluia!
Jesus died, our souls to save; Alleluia!
Where your victory, O grave? Alleluia!
Hail, the Lord of earth and heaven! Alleluia!
Praise to You by both be given; Alleluia!
Every knee to You shall bow, Alleluia!
Risen Christ, triumpant now. Alleluia!

ExpandI believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son our Lord;
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell;
The third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic church;
The communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins;
The resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
“Your Love Awakens Me”-Chris Quilala and Phil Wickham
ExpandThere were walls between us
By the cross You came and broke them down, You broke them down
And there were chains around us
By Your grace we are no longer bound, no longer bound
You called me out of the grave
You called me into the light
You called my name and then my heart came alive
Your love is greater Your love is stronger
Your love awakens awakens awakens me, awakens me
Feel the darkness shaking
All the dead are coming back to life, back to life
Hear the song awaken
All creation singing we're alive, 'cause You're alive
And what a love we've found
Death can't hold us down
Shout it out, we're alive 'cause You're alive
“King of Kings”-B. Ligertwood, J. Ingram & S. Ligertwood
ExpandIn the darkness, we were waiting
Without hope, without light
'Til from Heaven You came running
There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets
To a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt
My God, that is who You are
You are Waymaker, miracle worker
Promise keeper, light in the darkness
My God, that is who You are
You are here, touching every heart
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, healing every heart
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, turning lives around
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, mending every heart
I worship You, yeah, I worship You, Lord
Refrain
That is who You are. That is who You are. (4x)
Even when I don't see it, You're working
Even when I don't feel it, You're working
You never stop, You never stop working (2x)
“Way Maker” -Osinachi Kalu Okoro Egbu
ExpandYou are here, moving in our midst
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, working in this place
I worship You, I worship You

Promise keeper, light in the darkness

The Lord’s Prayer
ExpandOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.
