Resurrection Power

Easter

Resurrection Power. When I first heard the song I was really taken by the chorus and how brilliant the melody and lyrics are and how it’s so singable. But what it’s really saying, behind the song, is what’s so powerful and what makes the song even greater.

Most of us don’t wake up every day thinking, wow I have resurrection power in my life. If you’re like me, sometimes you don’t even think about it for maybe days or weeks. But that’s what is true, and I hope when people hear this song that it reminds people that every day of their life they have the power of God and that the power of the resurrection of Jesus Christ is inside of them.

Paul in the New Testament said, if the resurrection is not true then we’re all fools and most to be pitied. That’s what he said, but it is true. That’s the hope we sing about. That’s the reason there is a story to tell. That’s the reason there is hope to sing about. That is why we have church every Sunday. That is why we have hope and joy in our lives. Being brought from death to life. The old is gone, the new has come. That is what this song “Resurrection Power” is about. I hope when people sing this, when they hear this, that they realize, wow that is so true in my life.

“Resurrection Power” Lyrics by Chris Tomlin

You called me from the grave by name
You called me out of all my shame
I see the old has passed away
The new has come

Chorus
Now I have resurrection power
Living on the inside Jesus
You have given us freedom
No longer bound by sin and darkness
Living in the light of Your goodness
You have given us freedom

I’m dressed in Your royalty
Your holy spirit lives in me
I see my past has been redeemed
The new has come

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge
Freedom
You have given us freedom
You have given us freedom
My chains are gone

Freedom
You have given us freedom
You have given us freedom
Hallelujah

(Repeat Bridge)
(Repeat Chorus 2)

I have resurrection power
Living on the inside
Living on the inside
No longer bound by sin and darkness
You have given us freedom
You have given us freedom

 

 

About Mariah Chance

Hey everyone! I'm Mariah and I am a Senior at Thomas Edison State studying music. I am a Christian, and I'm living my life for the Lord everyday! :) My passion for music has grown massively over the years, I've been singing for 18 years, playing acoustic guitar for 15 years. I play piano, percussion and I also play keyboard. Music for me is a release of stress and everything in my life that is very difficult, and because of that I have chosen becoming a worship leader as my career. I love music and I want to help bring people and lead them in worship to the Lord. I will be receiving my BA degree in Music in April of 2020. I was raised in a very musical family. My mom sings and my dad plays the piano and guitar. As I said I'm living my life for the Lord everyday and following His plan for my life. And one of my most favorite songs that I've come to absolutely love is a song called "Joy" by Housefires. Here are the lyrics: "Joy" by: Housefires "There's beauty in my brokenness, I've got true love instead of pain. There's freedom though you've captured me, I've got joy instead of mourning. You give me joy, down deep in my soul, down deep in my soul, down deep in my soul. Never been so free caught in your love for me, never been more secure knowing your heart Lord. You give me joy down deep in my soul, down deep in my soul, down deep in my soul." Have a fantastic day! :)
