From Pastor Bob Today is Easter Sunday! You are welcome here. Worship the risen Savior with us today. This is the day in which all history hinges – the day the world changed. We are no longer under the cruel tyranny of sin and death. Jesus Christ, through his death and resurrection has set us free!
So let us celebrate!
Rise heart: thy Lord is risen. Sing his praise Without delayes, Who takes thee by the hand, that thou likewise With him mayst rise… The sunne arising in the East, Though he give light, & th’East perfume; If they should offer to contest With thy arising, they presume. Can there be any day but this, Though many sunnes to shine endeavour? We count three hundred, but we misse: There is but one, and that one ever.
