Suggested Usage: Communion, Scripture Readings
Behold, The Savior
Risen
Behold the
Savior, risen,
Behold the Savior lives
Brings life to all forgiven,
to all His grace He gives
Behold the Savior, glorious,
Behold Him, all arrayed
Behold your Lord, victorious,
who all your sins has paid.
As
Advent points to Christmas,
We long for Jesus’ birth.
Epiph’ny points to Jesus,
The incense, gold and myrrh.
Good Friday points to Easter
when Christ our Lord arose.
The cross, the grave—then glory!
He’s vanquished all our foes.
The
stone is rolled--now empty
is death’s cold, sullen tomb
Destroyed by Christ, the Victor,
the Lamb of God to whom
All praise, all honor, glory
and thanks be ever sung.
For Christ is now victorious
and sins' dread war is won!
