He Rose

When Jesus bled it was for redemption
Paying the price for our sins
His precious blood was for communion
God wanted closeness again
All of our chains were broken on the day…

He rose
Celebrate the day He rose
There’s power in the way He rose
Bless His holy name
He rose yeah He rose

When Jesus died it was for our freedom
Breaking the bondage of sin
Now the redeemed will live forever
Shout to the Saviour of men
All of our shame was washed away the day…

He hung on the cross forsaken
The glorious King has taken all our sins
Upon His head
Death and the grave were broken
The light of the world has spoken
We are free we’ve been redeemed
He rose
