Verse 1

God sent His Son, they called Him Jesus

He came to love, heal and forgive

He bled and died to buy my pardon

And empty grave to prove my Savior lives

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow

Because He lives, all fear is gone

Because I knoow, He holds the future

And life is worth the living just because He lives

And then one day I'll cross that river

I'll fight life's final war with pain

And then as death gives way to vict'ry

I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He reigns

Chorus 2

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow

Because He lives, all fear is gone

Because I knoow, He holds the future

And life is worth the living just because He lives

Verse 1

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross

The emblem of suff'ring and shame

And I love that old cross where the dearest and best

For a world of lost sinners was slain

Chorus

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

Verse 4

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true

Its shame and reproach gladly bear

Then He'll call me some day to my home far away

Where His glory forever I'll share

Chorus

So I'll cherish the old rugged (old rugged cross) cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

I’ll exchange it someday for a crown

Pre-Chorus

The ground began to shake

The stone was rolled away

His perfect love could not be overcome

Now death where is your sting

Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated

Chorus

Forever He is glorified

Forever He is lifted high

And forever He is risen

He is alive, He is alive

Bridge

We sing hallelujah, we sing hallelujah

We sing hallelujah the Lamb has overcome

We sing hallelujah, we sing hallelujah

We sing hallelujah the Lamb has overcome

Chorus

Forever He is glorified

Forever He is lifted high

And forever He is risen

He is alive, He is alive

Verse 1

There was a moment when the lights went out

When death had claimed its victory

The King of Love had given up His life, the darkest day in history

Verse 2

There on a cross they made for sinners, for every curse His blood atoned

One final breath and it was finished, but not the end we could have known

Pre-Chorus 1

For the earth began to shake and the veil was torn

What sacrifice was made as the heavens roared

Chorus 1

All hail King Jesus all hail the Lord of Heaven and earth

All hail King Jesus, all hail the Savior of the world

Verse 3

There was a moment when the sky lit up, a flash of light breaking through

When all was lost He crossed eternity, the King of life was on the move

Pre-Chorus 2

For in a dark, cold tomb where our Lord was laid

One miraculous breath

And we’re forever changed

Chorus 2

All hail King Jesus, all hail the Lord of Heaven and earth

All hail King Jesus, all hail the Savior of the world

Chorus 3

All hail King Jesus, all hail the Lord of Heaven and earth

All hail King Jesus, all hail the Savior of the world

Verse 1

How great the chasm that lay between us

How high the mountain I could not climb

In desperation, I turned to heaven

And spoke Your name into the night

Then through the darkness, Your lovingkindness

Tore through the shadows of my soul

The work is finished, the end is written

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Verse 2

Who could imagine so great a mercy

What heart could fathom such boundless grace

The God of ages stepped down from glory

To wear my sin and bear my shame

The cross has spoken, I am forgiven

The King of kings calls me His own

Beautiful Savior, I'm Yours forever

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Chorus 1

Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free

Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me

You have broken every chain, there's salvation in Your name

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Chorus 2

Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free

Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me

You have broken every chain, there's salvation in Your name

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Verse 3

Then came the morning that sealed the promise

Your buried body began to breathe

Out of the silence, the roaring Lion

Declared the grave has no claim on me

Then came the morning that sealed the promise

Your buried body began to breathe

Out of the silence, the roaring Lion

Declared the grave has no claim on me

Jesus, Yours is the victory

Chorus 3

Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free

Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me

You have broken every chain, there's salvation in Your name

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Luke 24:13-35

New Living Translation

The Walk to Emmaus

13 That same day two of Jesus’ followers were walking to the village of Emmaus, seven miles[a] from Jerusalem. 14 As they walked along they were talking about everything that had happened. 15 As they talked and discussed these things, Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them. 16 But God kept them from recognizing him.

17 He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?”

They stopped short, sadness written across their faces. 18 Then one of them, Cleopas, replied, “You must be the only person in Jerusalem who hasn’t heard about all the things that have happened there the last few days.”

19 “What things?” Jesus asked.

“The things that happened to Jesus, the man from Nazareth,” they said. “He was a prophet who did powerful miracles, and he was a mighty teacher in the eyes of God and all the people. 20 But our leading priests and other religious leaders handed him over to be condemned to death, and they crucified him. 21 We had hoped he was the Messiah who had come to rescue Israel. This all happened three days ago.

22 “Then some women from our group of his followers were at his tomb early this morning, and they came back with an amazing report. 23 They said his body was missing, and they had seen angels who told them Jesus is alive! 24 Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, his body was gone, just as the women had said.”

25 Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures. 26 Wasn’t it clearly predicted that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his glory?” 27 Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, explaining from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

28 By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus acted as if he were going on, 29 but they begged him, “Stay the night with us, since it is getting late.” So he went home with them. 30 As they sat down to eat,[b] he took the bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave it to them. 31 Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!

32 They said to each other, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?” 33 And within the hour they were on their way back to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven disciples and the others who had gathered with them, 34 who said, “The Lord has really risen! He appeared to Peter.[c]”

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

35 Then the two from Emmaus told their story of how Jesus had appeared to them as they were walking along the road, and how they had recognized him as he was breaking the bread.
