Lenten Devotional - 6th Sunday - Palm Sunday

Daily Devotional

Sunday "Little Easter"

Every Sunday in Lent is considered a "little Easter," a time to celebrate the Lord's resurrection and spend time praising God. So, in keeping with this, our Sunday devotionals will be traditional Easter hymns. Take a moment to sing these with your family or by yourself. If you like, listen to the song on your computer or phone. But be sure to spend time rejoicing and praising God for our new life in Jesus Christ.

Because He Lives

By Bill and Gloria Gaither

1. God sent his son, they called him Jesus He came to love, heal and forgive

He lived and died to buy my pardon

An empty grave is there to prove my savior lives.

Because he lives

I can face tomorrow

Because he lives

All fear is gone

Because I know he holds the future

And life is worth the living

Just because he lives.

2. How sweet to hold a newborn baby

And feel the pride and joy he gives

But greater still the calm assurance

This child can face uncertain day because he lives.

Because he lives

I can face tomorrow

Because he lives

All fear is gone

Because I know he holds the future

And life is worth the living

Just because he lives.

3. And then one day I'll cross the river

I'll fight life's final war with pain And then, as death gives way to vict'ry

I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know he reigns.

Because he lives

I can face tomorrow

Because he lives

All fear is gone

Because I know he holds the future

And life is worth the living

Just because he lives.
