resurrection

 

For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.

1 Corinthians 15:21-22

Born dead.

In Adam's sin we all died

fallen, broken, in sin filled pride

but a Deliverer came alongside

calling us in Him to abide

and in Jesus' death, death itself died

so those born dead might reside

in His resurrection

Made alive.

In Christ's resurrection we now live

because His righteousness to us He gave

to all of those who would believe

and in His name forgiveness receive

finding that God their sins forgave

so that in heaven forever they will live

because of His resurrection
