Standing looking out at Jerusalem, crucifixion passed\u2026
\nAn empty tomb behind me, Alive at last!
\nMy heavenly home awaits me, the hosts of heaven waits\u2026
\nI\u2019ve conquered death, hell and the grave, now opened, are heavens gates\u2026
\nBut there are still some tasks, that I must tend to first
\nThis is why I came; this is the reason for my birth\u2026
\nFirst-fruits of the resurrection
\nI\u2019m a brand-new creation\u2026designed divinely, by my father\u2019s hand
\nThe family of God, standing, for my final command\u2026
\nWe must wait a little longer\u2026there is much work here still to do
\nMy Church will rise victorious to be my witnesses, Oh, so glorious
\nOf my Father\u2019s love and plan\u2026
\nFor God\u2019s design was man\u2026
\nAnd all who abide in me, I raise my voice to thee and sing of grace, given to you eternally!
\nFrom the cross of Calvary\u2026to the tomb where they buried me
\nTo the rising in the air\u2026child, our home will forever be\u2026
\nI am, the resurrection and the life\u2026all who believe in me will never die!
\nI raise my hands to thee, L\u2019Chaim
\nTo LIFE!<\/p>\n

The Order of Resurrection<\/em><\/h6>\n
20 But now [as things really are] Christ has in fact been raised from the dead, [and He became] the first fruits [that is, the first to be resurrected with an incorruptible, immortal body, foreshadowing the resurrection] of those who have fallen asleep [in death]. 21 For since [it was] by a man that death came [into the world], it is also by a Man that the resurrection of the dead has come. 22 For just as [a]in Adam all die, so also [b]in Christ all will be made alive. <\/em><\/h6>\n
