Resurrected, Not Raised

Seated with Him at His own right hand;

This the glorious message Easter brings me. This the place in which by faith I stand.

Men would bid you rise to higher levels, But they leave you on the human plane.

We must have a heavenly Resurrection; We must die with Christ and rise again.

Once there lived another man within me, Child of earth and slave of Satan he;

But I nailed him to the Cross of Jesus, And that man is ncthing now to me

Now Another Man is living in me,
And I count His blessed life as mine;

I have died with Him to all my own life; I have risen to all His life Divine.

Oh, it is so sweet to die with Jesus!

And by death be free from self and sin. Oh, it is so sweet to live with Jesus!

As He lives the death-born life within.
