Risen

I started this son in April this year. It was Easter and I wanted to do a song about the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The words came reasonably quickly, but the tune took a long time. Eventually I realised this could not be a traditional song, but a story, so the chorus was not going to be a repeatable theme in the song.

To be honest, the song turned out differently to what I imagined, but the more I played it, the more I knew it was the right mix, tempo and style.

I hope you are blessed with it, and will inspire you to have hope in Jesus Christ who has conquered death.

Lyrics

"Risen" by KunzyPoet

[VERSE]

I just weep and cry

For yesterday Jesus died

I cannot sleep,

I keep thinking he is the Messiah

They nailed Him upon the cross

He said He was the Son of God

Now He's dead,

And my hope is lost

Just like the crowd

I abandoned him in death

Filled with doubt

I turned away and I just left

But in my head, I knew he said

That he'd be raised on the third day

Did he know he'd die this way?

[PRE-CHORUS]

I walk along the rocky parth

Towards the tomb, it is so dark

Along the road, I'm so alone

How can I go on?

[ONE BAR BREAK]

[CHORUS]

Where is my hope?

It's so hard to find

Jesus said he'd live again

But I had watched him die

Will His words come true

Or am I just a fool

To hope for a miracle

as I wait till sunrise

[BRIDGE - sung with power]

As sunlight hits the rocky tomb

An earthquake shakes the ground

There's blinding light

As I cry out

But angels shout

All heaven praises God with singing

The tomb's empty

Death is defeated

For Jesus Christ the Son of God is risen

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[CHORUS]

There is now always hope

And it's for all mankind

It's the resurrection

of JESUS CHRIST

[CHORUS]

There is now always hope

And it's for all mankind

It's the resurrection

of JESUS CHRIST
