JESUS DIED TODAY (Friday)
Nailed to a cross, held up in the air
So his enemies could see Him there.
Beaten and tortured, bleeding and bare
Jesus died today.
He did not cry out, did not complain.
Like a lamb at the altar He was slain,
So my sins with me would not remain.
Jesus died today.
He chose to die...the time and the place.
He did it for the human race,
the example of God's loving grace.
Jesus died today.
JESUS IS BURIED TODAY (Saturday)
His place is a tomb, cold and alone,
A borrowed grave instead of a throne
To pay for sins like my very own.
Jesus is buried today.
There is no marker, no special way
To see where Jesus lays today
Because He said "Father, I obey."
Jesus is buried today.
Draped with cloth from his head to his feet
The great sacrifice is now complete.
Proudly all his enemies repeat
Jesus is buried today.
JESUS ROSE TODAY (Sunday)
Women were first to see it was true.
They went to the tomb while day was new.
They told others. Soon everyone knew
Jesus rose today.
He left the tomb so cold and so bare.
No need to look, Jesus is not there.
The news is joy to men everywhere.
Jesus rose today.
Death is defeated. Jesus has won.
This is the proof that He is God's son.
He's the Messiah, the Promised One.
Jesus rose today.
