last night i was reminded of a song that we used to sing at youth in china
i was reflecting on the lyrics and couldn't get over how great they were
i love that the words are true.

let no one caught in sin remain
inside the lie of inward shame
but fix our eyes upon the cross
and run to Him who showed great love
and bled for us
freely you've bled for us

christ is risen from the dead
trampling over death by death
come awake, come awake
come and rise up from the grave
christ is risen from the dead
we are one with Him again
come awake come awake
come and rise up from the grace

beneath the weight of all our sin
You bowed to none but heaven's will
no scheme of man
no scoffer's crown
no burden great
can hold You down
in strength You reign
forever let your church proclaim

o death, where is your sting?
o hell, where is your victory?
o church, come stand in the light
the glory of God has defeated the night

o death, where is your sting?
o hell, where is your victory?
o church, come stand in the light
our God is not dead
He's alive, He's alive!

christ is risen by matt maher.
go listen to it
