My talented friend Carrie Yost wrote this beautiful song.
In her words:
This Easter we BOLDLY and POWERFULLY testify of the life, purpose, ministry and sacrifice of, “Jesus the Christ”. “He won the the fight, we’d never win, So we will rise, and testify of Him…” It is only in testifying of Him, that others find find Him. Oh, the HOPE! #becauseofhim we are redeemed!
Matthew 28:6 He is not here: He is risen. We thank God for the gift of a Savior, Jesus the Christ. -Carrie Yost

Verse 1: A long long time ago, In a distant far off place, The Son of God would come, To offer us his Grace. He would suffer for us in Gethsemane, Then again upon a cross on Calvary.
Pre-chorus: The final price, would take His life, Then on the third day…He would rise. Chorus: He would rise, Jesus the Christ. Come to save us all, Just as the prophets testified. He won the the fight, We’d never win, So we will rise, And testify of Him, We’ll testify of Him. Jesus the Christ.
Verse 2: There was no other way, We knew justice must paid. Because we’d make mistakes, He would provide a way. He would feel the pain and heart ache we would feel, So he’d know exactly how to help us heal. Pre-chorus: The final price, would take His life, Then on the third day…He would rise.
Chorus: He would rise, Jesus the Christ. Come to save us all, Just as the prophets testified. He won the the fight, We’d never win, So we will rise, And testify of Him. We’ll testify of Him Jesus the Christ.
Bridge Greater love hath no man than this, Than he who laid his life down for his friend.
Chorus: He would rise, Jesus the Christ. Come to save us all, Just as the prophets testified. He won the the fight, We’d never win, So we will rise, And testify of Him. We’ll testify of Him, Jesus the Christ! Jesus the Christ! Jesus the Christ!
Thank you to all who shared their amazing talents in making this power testimony through song available this Easter season!
I love this song. The angelic voices, smiles, testimonies, joy and love of Jesus Christ shining through the eyes and faces of the children. Thank you for brightening my day–reminding me to remember Christ’s love even on difficult days.
Beautiful. Can’t wait to play this for Seminary, especially Easter week.
