He Is Alive

He died on the cross for you and me
From this sin filled life we are leading
He took all of our sins as if His own
Nailed to the cross He died bleeding

So much envied by powerful evil men
They were afraid of the power He had
False accusations they told about Him
Making Him out to be a liar and a cad

They made Him carry that heavy cross
All the way up to the top of Mt. Calvary
They placed Him there with two thieves
Then nailed Him to that rough cut tree 

Some of the Roman soldiers mocked Him
They gambled for the clothes that He wore
They killed Him, but He is very much alive
He is living up there in Heaven we are sure
