OPENING SONG
The Lion and the Lamb | Brenton Brown, Brian Johnson & Leeland Mooring
He's coming on the clouds

Kings and kingdoms will bow down

And every chain will break

As broken hearts declare his praise

For who can stop the Lord Almighty

Our God is the lion

The lion of Judah

He's roaring with power

And fighting our battles

And every knee will bow before Him

Our God is the lamb

The lamb that was slain

For the sins of the world

His blood breaks the chains

And every knee will bow before the lion and the lamb

Every knee will bow before him

So open up the gates

Make way before the king of kings

The God who comes to save

Is here to set the captives free

For who can stop the Lord Almighty

Who can stop the Lord Almighty

Who can stop the Lord (Almighty)

SONGS OF WORSHIP
King of Kings | Brooke Ligertwood, Jason Ingram & Scott Ligertwood
In the darkness we were waiting
Without hope without light
Till from heaven you came running
There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfil the law and prophets
To a virgin came the Word

From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt

Praise the Father
Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit three in one
God of Glory
Majesty
Praise forever to the King of kings

To reveal the kingdom coming
And to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation
You did not despise the cross
For even in your suffering
You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation
Jesus for our sake you died

And the morning that you rose
All of heaven held its breath
Till that stone was moved for good
For the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs
And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who'd come
To the Father are restored

And the Church of Christ was born
Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this Gospel truth of old
Shall not kneel shall not faint
By his blood and in His Name
In his freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ
Who has resurrected me

SONG OF WORSHIP
Forever | Brian Johnson, Christa Black Gifford, Gabriel Wilson, Jenn Johnson, Joel Taylor & Kari Jobe
The moon and stars they wept
The morning sun was dead
The Savior of the world was fallen
His body on the cross
His blood poured out for us
The weight of every curse upon Him

One final breath he gave
As heaven looked away
The Son of God was laid in darkness
A battle in the grave
The war on death was waged
The power of hell forever broken

The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His (perfect) (reckless) love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting
Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated

Now forever he is glorified
Forever he is lifted high
And forever he is risen
He is alive and he is alive

We sing hallelujah we sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah the lamb has overcome

We sing hallelujah we sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah

MORNING PRAYER

SCRIPTURE
Matthew 28:1-10 | The Voice
After the Sabbath, as the light of the next day, the first day of the week, crept over Palestine, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to the tomb to keep vigil. ²Earlier there had been an earthquake. A messenger of the Lord had come down from heaven and had gone to the grave. He rolled away the stone and sat down on top of it. ³He veritably glowed. He was vibrating with light. His clothes were light, white like transfiguration, like fresh snow. ⁴The soldiers guarding the tomb were terrified. They froze like stone.

⁵The messenger spoke to the women, to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary.

Messenger of the Lord: Don’t be afraid. I know you are here keeping watch for Jesus who was crucified. ⁶But Jesus is not here. He was raised, just as he said He would be. Come over to the grave, and see for yourself. ⁷And then go straight to his disciples, and tell them he’s been raised from the dead and has gone on to Galilee. You’ll find him there. Listen carefully to what I am telling you.

⁸The women were both terrified and thrilled, and they quickly left the tomb and went to find the disciples and give them this outstandingly good news. ⁹But while they were on their way, they saw Jesus himself.

Jesus (greeting the women): Rejoice.

The women fell down before Him, kissing His feet and worshiping Him.

Jesus: ¹⁰Don’t be afraid. Go and tell My brothers to go to Galilee. Tell them I will meet them there.

These are the words of God for the people of God. Thanks be to God.
