If Jesus had not risen
We would have been hopeless sinners
Sentenced, condemned and lost forever.
If Jesus had not risen
Eternal life wouldn’t have been certain
And we would have been of all men most miserable.
If Jesus had not risen
His death on the cross would have been useless
His mission on earth defeated.
Thank God He rose from the dead
It was suffering and agony on Friday
Silence and humiliation on Saturday
But Sunday was glorious as He rose back to life. (c) adeola abimbola 2004
