ICEL LUKE 24:1-8 (NIV) 1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.

ICEL LUKE 24:1-8 (NIV) 5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? 6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 7 ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ” 8 Then they remembered his words.

ICEL 60 CHRIST IS RISEN! CHRIST IS RISEN! Hallelujah, hallelujah! Christ is risen! Risen indeed, hallelujah! Love’s work is done, the battle is won: Where now, O death, is your sting? He rose again to rule and to reign, Jesus our conquering King. Chris Rolinson

ICEL 322 LED LIKE A LAMB LED LIKE A LAMB to the slaughter In silence and shame, There on Your back You carried a world Of violence and pain. Bleeding, dying, bleeding, dying. Graham Kendrick

ICEL You’re alive, You’re alive, You have risen, Alleluia! And the power and the glory is given, Alleluia, Jesus, to You.

ICEL At break of dawn, poor Mary, Still weeping she came, When through her grief she heard Your voice Now speaking her name. Mary, Master, Mary, Master!

ICEL At the right hand of the Father Now seated on high You have begun Your eternal reign Of justice and joy. Glory, glory, glory, glory.

ICEL You’re alive, You’re alive, You have risen, Alleluia! And the power and the glory is given, Alleluia, Jesus, to You. Copyright © 1983 Kingsway’s Thankyou Music.

ICEL He is truly risen! The effects of sin: Paradise lost…no access to the “tree of life” death to men…(Genesis 2) 1 Corinthians 15:26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death. Romans 6:9 9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. Revelation 2:7...I will give the right to eat from the tree of life…,in the paradise of God.

ICEL We will live with Him! Galatians 2:20 20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. 2 Timothy 2:11 11 Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him we will also live with him; Romans 6:8 8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.

ICEL We have seen the Lord! John 20:18 18 Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her. John 20:25 25 So the other disciples told him, (Thomas) “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

ICEL Saul the persecutor, Paul the convert Acts 9 3 As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. 4 He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” 5 “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. 1 Corinthians 15:8 8 and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.

ICEL According to the scriptures 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures Luke 24: 27 (on the road to Emmaus) And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

ICEL On the third day The Nicene Creed: 325 AD. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven John 2:19 19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”

ICEL I want to know Christ. Philippians 3: I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11 and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

ICEL 378 LOW IN THE GRAVE HE LAY LOW IN THE GRAVE HE LAY, Jesus, my Saviour, Waiting the coming day, Jesus, my Lord: Robert Lowry

ICEL Up from the grave He arose, With a mighty triumph o’er His foes; He arose a Victor from the dark domain, And He lives for ever with His saints to reign: He arose! He arose! Alleluia! Christ arose!

ICEL Vainly they watch His bed, Jesus, my Saviour; Vainly they seal the dead, Jesus, my Lord:

ICEL Up from the grave He arose, With a mighty triumph o’er His foes; He arose a Victor from the dark domain, And He lives for ever with His saints to reign: He arose! He arose! Alleluia! Christ arose!

ICEL Death cannot keep his prey, Jesus, my Saviour; He tore the bars away, Jesus, my Lord:

ICEL Up from the grave He arose, With a mighty triumph o’er His foes; He arose a Victor from the dark domain, And He lives for ever with His saints to reign: He arose! He arose! Alleluia! Christ arose!

ICEL 551 THINE BE THE GLORY THINE BE THE GLORY, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory Thou o’er death hast won. Angels in bright raiment Rolled the stone away, Kept the folded grave-clothes Where Thy body lay. Edmond Louis Budry Tr R Birch Hoyle

ICEL Thine be the glory, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory Thou o’er death hast won!

ICEL Lo, Jesus meets us, Risen from the tomb! Lovingly He greets us, Scatters fear and gloom. Let the church with gladness Hymns of triumph sing, For her Lord now liveth, Death hath lost its sting.

ICEL Thine be the glory, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory Thou o’er death hast won!

ICEL No more we doubt Thee, Glorious Prince of life; Life is naught without Thee: Aid us in our strife; Make us more than conquerors, Through Thy deathless love; Lead us in Thy triumph To Thy home above.

ICEL Thine be the glory, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory Thou o’er death hast won!

ICEL May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us now and forever more. Amen.
