    This Easter morning, I'm again, moved by this musical masterpiece, that really grabs a hold of the inner spirit, and reaffirms the promise of resurrection, and redemption, through the brutal sacrifice and spilling of blood, by the spotless Lamb of God, Jesus. I am ever so thankful, that the story did not end there, but then illuminated the darkness, when the Word made flesh, rose from the dead, and fulfilled His promise! Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!~

      Jakob Andersen Yes He surely died and this case was the most documented case in all human history. 300 prophecy were also fulfilled on the same time witch is mind blowing. In really invite you to watch the movie “the case for Christ” that is based on a true story if you’re also looking for the truth! ;) be bless Jesus is not only well alive today He loves you unconditionally! Many testimonies and a lot of good music is also available on my playlist.

    Three days in darkness far below
    Death hearkens from an ago ago
    The ancient promise that we waited for so long
    Has gone away
    All hope is lost, left upon that cross
    A bloodstained robe
    It seems redemption's dream has dies
    Visions and the prophecies all washed away in vain
    Groanings of creation as it cries out in pain
    Sacrosanct the stories of what is and what will be
    All foretold this was supposed to end so differently
    All nature mourns in unison
    Creation forms its requiem
    Branded with the mark of sin and shame
    A life laid down, a cursed name
    A crown forsaken, burden, blame
    Another cycle just the same
    Is this the end of Promise
    Dying all alone?
    Easter morning's Son will rise
    Radiance warming tearstained eyes
    The Son of Man shall be raised up on the third day
    The grave denied
    Run and see the stone has rolled away behold the way
    They're trembling in terror at the grave
    (Is this an empty promise, that we've been waiting for?
    Because I'm so afraid to get my hopes anymore
    Is this a cruel illusion? Or could it really be
    The miracle of miracles unfolding right in front of me?)
    Blinding angel, white as lightning
    Violent earthquakes, do not fear
    Why seek the living among the dead?
    Behold, He is not here
    Glory! Glory! Hope is alive
    And lifted up, before your eyes
    Waking all the world, open gates to paradise
    Now it's done
    Life has come
    Death has died
    Easter glory, what an ending to the story
    My So, arise!
    Early misty morning
    Just before the dawn
    An empty tomb, a broken body gone
    Thieves have done their bidding
    Before the light of day
    They've stolen Him and taken Him away
    Let Me break apart
    The secrets you've held in your heard
    Awaken now
    Remember
    Words you hid away
    A promise to rise after the third day
    It's Me
    Do you remember?
    All the things we'd hoped for
    And waited for so long
    The kingdom of deliverance is gone
    Faded like a candle snuffed out to kill the light
    The morning runs away into the night
    Let Me break apart
    The secrets you've held in your heard
    Awaken now
    Remember
    Words you hid away
    A promise to rise after the third day
    It's Me
    Do you remember?
    Glory! Glory! Hope is alive
    And lifted up, before your eyes
    Waking all the world, open gates to paradise
    Now it's done
    Life has come
    Death has died
    Easter glory, what an ending to the story
    My So, arise!
    Glory! Glory! Hope is alive
    And lifted up, before your eyes
    Waking all the world, open gates to paradise
    Now it's done
    Life has come
    Death has died
    Easter glory, what an ending to the story
    My So, arise!
    (Earth awaken, all creation open up your eyes again
    Alive again, for Christ hath torn the veil of darkness away)
    Easter glory, what an ending to the story
    My Son, arise!
