Christ alive! (Vol 1 No 45)
Christ alive! The story told;
Jesus’ friends become quite bold;
Christ alive! The Church has said
Jesus lives in wine and bread;
Christ alive in heart and mind,
Those who follow Him shall find
As they struggle, as they strive,
Courage grows. “Christ is alive!”
Christ alive in stress and strain,
Gives a strength to ease the pain.
Christ alive! When failures hurt,
When the wicked wrongs subvert.
Christ alive! When all is lost,
Life is struggle, stress and cost.
When we think we can’t survive,
Strength renews. “Christ is alive!”
Christ alive! He’s with us still;
Helping us to do His will.
Christ alive in human care,
Prompting us to love and share.
Christ alive! When we forgive;
Giving others strength to live.
Justice, gentleness still thrive;
Love is strong. “Christ is alive!”
Christ alive! Love often dies.
When we kill it, it will rise.
Christ alive! The message clear.
Never distant; always near.
Christ alive! Look at his hands;
Feel His side where he now stands.
Faith, conviction, hope arrive;
Christ alive! “Christ is alive!”
