10s, P.M.

1
The Lord is risen: the Red Sea’s judgment flood
 
Is passed in Him, who bought us with His blood.
 
The Lord is risen: we stand beyond the doom
 
Of all our sin, through Jesus’ empty tomb.
“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” (Acts 20:28)
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” (John 5:24)

The Lord is risen: with Him we also rose,
 
And in His grave see vanquished all our foes.
 
The Lord is risen: beyond the judgment land,
 
In Him, in resurrection life we stand.
“Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.” (Colossians 2:12)
“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.” (Colossians 3:1)
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” (Colossians 2:15)

The Lord is risen: redeemèd now to God,
 
We tread the desert which His feet have trod.
 
The Lord is risen: the sanctuary’s our place,
 
Where now we dwell before the Father’s face.
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.” (Revelation 5:9)
“But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building. Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.” (Hebrews 9:11-12)
“Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.” (Hebrews 10:19)

The Lord is risen: the Lord is gone before,
 
We long to see Him, and to sin no more.
 
The Lord is risen: our triumph-shout shall be,
 
"Thou hast prevailed! Thy people, Lord, are free!"
“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” (John 14:3)
“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.” (Revelation 5:5)
