It is interesting how you have those days that immediately a song pops into your head and you just can't get it out. That is how I am today! I didn't listen to my radio on the way to work nor did I fall asleep last night with a radio on, but when my feet hit the floor this morning the song "I Will Rise" by Chris Tomlin was playing in my head.
.
And, to top that off my scripture for today is John 5:24 "I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life." (NLT).
.
So, I just wanted to share the words to this song with you. Isn't it easier to have a little more spunk in your steps just knowing that your sins are forgiven? Doesn't it make any normal day a little more joyous? If not, it should! Being forgiven is the greatest freedom I have ever experienced in my life. So many times you are pulled down, tied down, held down and you just scream to be free...you only find that freedom in Christ Jesus!
.
Anyway, I hope the lyrics to this song speak to you like they do to me. And, if you've never heard this song before I encourage you to google it or find some other way to hear this song.

I Will Rise
by Chris Tomlin
.
There's a peace I've come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say "It is well"
.
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead
.
And I will rise
when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And I will rise
.
There's a day that's drawing near
When this darkness breaks to light
And the shadows disappear
And my faith shall be my eyes
.
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead
.
And I will rise
when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And I will rise
.
And I hear the voice of many angels sing,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
And I hear the cry of every longing heart,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
.
And I will rise
when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God
fall on my knees
And rise I will rise
