I love an Easter sunrise service, but I haven't gone to a church that did one in years. The church just outside our subdivision usually does one every year, but I have to be at church too early for worship practice to go. So I made up my mind I was doing my own Easter sunrise service. It was just me and the dog. I took my old hymnal, my camera and chair out and sat in the yard. I sang a few old hymns, prayed and watched it sun come up. It was kind of chilly, but it was a glorious Easter morning.
I Know that My Redeemer Liveth
I know that my Redeemer liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand;
I know eternal life He giveth,
That grace and power are in His hand.
Chorus:
I know, I know that Jesus liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand;
I know, I know that life He giveth,
That grace and power are in His hand.
I know His promise never faileth,
The word He speaks, it cannot die;
Tho' cruel death my flesh assaileth,
Yet I shall see Him by and by.
