He is Risen! And God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Hymn - Oh Praise the Name
​​
I cast my mind to Calvary​
Where Jesus bled and died for me​
I see His wounds, His hands, His feet​
My Savior on that cursed tree
His body bound & drenched in tears​
They laid Him down in Joseph's tomb​
The entrance sealed by heavy stone​
Messiah still and all alone
Chorus
O praise the Name
of the Lord our God​
O praise His Name forevermore​
For endless days
we will sing Your praise​
Oh Lord, oh Lord, our God
Then on the third at break of dawn​
The Son of heaven rose again​
O trampled death where is your sting​
The angels roar for Christ the King
He shall return in robes of white​
The blazing sun shall pierce the night​
And we will rise among the saints​
Our gaze transfixed on Jesus' face
​​
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
1 Peter 1:3-5
Hymn -Living Hope
​
How great the chasm
that lay between us
How high the mountain
I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness,
Your loving-kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope.
​
Who could imagine
so great a mercy?
What heart could fathom
such boundless grace?
The God of ages
stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
The King of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Savior, I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ, my living hope
​
Hallelujah, praise the
One who set me free
Hallelujah, death
has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
(REPEAT)
Then came the morning
that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave
has no claim on me
(REPEAT)
Jesus, Yours is the victory!
[Chorus]
​
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Jesus Christ, my living hope

“Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.” So Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus’ head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; for as yet they did not understand the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead. Then the disciples went back to their homes.
But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb. And she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet. They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means Teacher). Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”—and that he had said these things to her."

Responsive Reading - Matthew 6:9-13 ~ Read in Unison
​
Our Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory,
For ever and ever. Amen.

Hymn - Low in the Grave
​
Low in the grave he lay,
Jesus my Savior,
waiting the coming day,
Jesus my Lord!
Up from the grave he arose;
with a mighty triumph
o'er his foes;
he arose a victor
from the dark domain,
and he lives forever,
with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!
​
Vainly they watch his bed,
Jesus my Savior,
vainly they seal the dead,
Jesus my Lord!
​
Death cannot keep its prey,
Jesus my Savior;
he tore the bars away,
Jesus my Lord!
Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:1-26

1 “Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
​
3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. 8 Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. 11 Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.
​
12 Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. 14 And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. 15 We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. 16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.
20 But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. 24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.”

Hymn - Amazing Grace
​
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound​
That saved a wretch like me​
I once was lost, but now I'm found​
Was blind, but now I see​
​​
'Twas grace that taught
my heart to fear​
And grace my fears relieved​
How precious did that grace appear​
The hour I first believed​
​
Chorus​
My chains are gone,
I've been set free​
My God, my Savior
has ransomed me​
And like a flood His mercy reigns​
Unending love, amazing grace​
​​
The Lord has promised good to me​
His word my hope secures​
He will my shield and portion be​
As long as life endures​
​
The earth shall soon
dissolve like snow​
The sun forbear to shine​
But God who called me here below​
Will be forever mine​
Will be forever mine​
You are forever mine
​
Unending love, amazing grace ​
Unending love, amazing grace

Hymn - Glorious Day
I was buried beneath my shame​
Who could carry that kind of weight?​
It was my tomb​, 'Til I met You
I was breathing, but not alive​
All my failures I tried to hide​
It was my tomb​, 'Til I met You
Chorus
You called my name​
And I ran out of that grave​
Out of the darkness​
Into Your glorious day​
You called my name​
And I ran out of that grave​
Out of the darkness​
Into Your glorious day
Now Your mercy has saved my soul​
Now Your freedom is all that I know​
The old made new​
Jesus, when I met You
You called my name​
And I ran out of that grave​
Out of the darkness​
Into Your glorious day​
You called my name​
And I ran out of that grave​
Out of the darkness​
Into Your glorious day
I needed rescue​, My sin was heavy​
But chains break
at the weight of Your glory​
I needed shelter​. I was an orphan​
But You call me a citizen of Heaven​
When I was broken​,
You were my healing​
Now Your love is the air
that I'm breathing​
I have a future​, My eyes are open
'Cause when you called my name
​
Benediction - Hebrews 13:20-21

Amen.”
