Stop Running and Find Peace in the Resurrection

Speaker : Rob Sauers
John 20:19-20
On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being locked where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.
 
Hymn: WS 726 : Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain
Hymnary.org

1. Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness!
God has brought His Israel
In to joy from sadness.
See the spring of souls today:
Christ has burst His prison
And from three days’ sleep in death
As a sun has risen

2. All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From His light, to Whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
Neither could the gates of death
Nor the tomb’s dark portal
Nor the watchers nor the seal
Hold Him as a mortal.

3. But today among His own
Christ appeared, bestowing
Bless’ed peace,which evermore
Passes human knowing.
Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness!
God has brought His Israel
Into joy from sadness.
