The Lord Jesus Christ - The Risen King

So sorry that I am now able to give the title or the writer of this praise poem but not knowing him/her does not deminish the truths of the song. May it bless you as you contemplate that Jesus is risen! Consider the myriad blessings that are ours because He rose and is alive today.


Come, people of the Risen King, {Is He your Risen King?}
Who delight to bring Him praise; {Are you delighted to praise Him?}
Come all and tune your hearts to sing {How is your heart? Is it singing}
To the Morning Star of grace. {Do you know the grace greater than sin?}
From the shifting shadows of the earth {Where is your focus?}
We will lift our eyes to Him, {Will you fix your eyes on Jesus}
Where steady arms of mercy reach {Do you feel the Arms filled with mercy?}
To gather children in.

Father in heaven, gather in the children those near and those far. Jesus took the little ones on His knee and blessed them. May this picture encourage us to believe that You are the true blessing and will bless our children for the sake of Your Name and kingdom.
