Easter // Week 7 // April 9-15

Oh, Christ is risen! Oh, risen indeed!

Oh, Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

Early on that Easter day, the women went down to pray

They went on down to the tomb and they found the stone was rolled away

Oh, Christ is risen! Oh, risen indeed! Oh, Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

Why do you look for the living among the dead?

Why do you look for the living among the dead?

Why do you look for the living among the dead?

He is not here; he has risen!

From the women at the empty tomb

To the disciples in the upper room

Spreading the word that the seed was in the dirt

Now it’s out and the sprout’s in bloom

Oh, Christ is risen! Oh, risen indeed! Oh, Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

Set your minds on things that are above,

not on things that are on earth,

Set your minds on things that are above,

not on things that are on earth,

for you have died, and your life is

hidden with Christ in God.

When Christ who is your life

is revealed, then you also will be revealed

with him in glory.

with him in glory.

Lyrics: direct quotation from Colossians 3:2-4 (NRSV)
