Our Jesus Rose on Easter Morning
Mike Mirabella ©1979, 2019
*Additional verse: Nedi Rivera
Refrain:
Our Jesus rose on Easter Morning,
He came to sing a love song,
He came to be our friend.
When he returns in all his glory,
He’s going to find us singing
And his song will never end.
Jesus found us crying and dried our bitter tears,
Held us in his loving arms and told us not to fear;
Jesus died and set us free, then, rose again yes, we believe
He’s standing right beside us, sure as we are standing here.
Refrain:
Our Jesus rose on Easter Morning,
He came to sing a love song,
He came to be our friend.
When he returns in all his glory,
He’s going to find us singing
And his song will never end.
Before our Jesus found us, we were sinful and profane,
Pride was our affliction, ‘Lonesome’ was our name.
Then, somewhere in our misery, he shined his light that we might see,
We are worth redeeming; he loves us just the same.
Refrain:
Our Jesus rose on Easter Morning,
He came to sing a love song,
He came to be our friend.
When he returns in all his glory,
He’s going to find us singing
And his song will never end.
* Jesus rose so we could live our lives abundantly,
To sing a song of blessing and to dance eternally;
Jesus rose to show us love, and send the Spirit like a dove,
Who brings us all together in hope-filled ministry.
Refrain:
Our Jesus rose on Easter Morning,
He came to sing a love song,
He came to be our friend.
When he returns in all his glory,
He’s going to find us singing
And his song will never end.
