A song about the Resurrection
Simple songs that I hope will touch the heart of God, and maybe a few other people in the process.
I may never make it to Nashville, and I may never be on the radio, but that's okay. That's not why I do what I do. I do what I do because I understand things best when I get them down in rhyming lines set to music. I do what I do because I believe that my Heavenly Father enjoys the songs that few hear just as much as He enjoys the songs that everyone hears. I do what I do because it's one of the best ways I know how to worship God, encourage friends, and uplift the body of Christ.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song to sing with a friend of mine for a local Sunrise Service on Easter morning.
Lyrics
The sun rose over the garden Where the God-Man lay buried in a tomb The sun chased away the darkness While the best friends lay asleep in their room And suddenly the whole earth shook with great force When the Lamb of Heaven roared Crying... I am risen I am risen indeed I have come back from the grave Hallelujah Give your praise to the King Death is bound and you are saved The women went there in mourning To take care of the Rabbi they still missed The angels met them with glory "Why are you among the dead when He lives? Go back to your brothers and speak what you've seen Tell them you have been redeemed!" Singing... He is risen He is risen indeed He has come back from the grave Hallelujah Give your praise to the King Death is bound and you are saved And so the fishermen saw Him Where He waited on the shore of the sea And one dove into the water Swimming fast, breathing hard, and almost free Jesus said, "You claim to love me more than these If you do, then feed my sheep" Preaching... He is risen He is risen indeed He has come back from the grave Hallelujah Give your praise to the King Death is bound and you are saved So we sing... He is risen He is risen indeed He has come back from the grave Hallelujah We give praise to the King Death is bound and we are saved
