Cristo Está Vivo

Christ is Alive
And on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb and when they arrived there, they found the stone removed and the tomb empty, then they were surprised by an angel who said to them: 'Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, for he has risen.'
Today is Friday in Jerusalem, on the way to Calvary I see someone, carrying a heavy cross, condemned to die in my place.
The soldiers will nail him to the cross and as they raise it, they will tear apart Jesus' body, it will be the most terrible pain that anyone can endure and even his own father will turn his face away.
When the crowd shouted 'Release Barabbas!' they were condemning the Prince of Peace to death, when they said 'Crucify Jesus' they were choosing darkness, rejecting the light, but he came to fulfill what God planned and there on the cross in my place he surrendered, like a lamb he had to pass through death, like a lion he rose again, forever alive...

He is alive, Christ is alive, he triumphed over death and today he is in this place.
He is alive, Christ is alive, you are the Lamb of God, lion of the tribe of Judah.
Lion of the tribe of Judah...
