Emmanuel, Son of God Ruler of Israel, blessed
forever We bring our praise to You Lamb of God,
the Righteous One Prince of Life, Hope of Man
Glory of the risen Lord, Lion of Judah We bring
our praise to You Glory to the Holy One of God
Rejoice, rejoice for Christ the King Was laid in
the tomb but is risen as King Sing of His glory
Sing of His might Jesus is risen and given us
light Jesus has given us light Alleluia We are the
fruit of Jesus' labor (John 4:34. Jesus said to
them, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent
Me, and to accomplish His work.") Jesus our
Saviour, Son of God, alone is worthy of praise,
Jesus, God's only Son, given freely became the
substitute for our sin. The Lamb of God, in His
sinless sacrifice, became more than Savior. He
became our Lord and Master. The Messiah is man's
only hope. We are baptized with Him in death, but
not eternal death, but death to the power of sin
over us (Romans 6:22. But now having been freed
from sin and enslaved to God you derive your
benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the
outcome, eternal life.) We also are raised with
Him in victory over sin, made possible by His
blood. Thus Jesus is worthy of all praise and
glory. The Power of resurrection (Philippians
3:10. that I may know Him, and the power of His
resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings,

victory in Jesus. We are overwhelming conquerors
in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:37. But in all
these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him
who loved us.) We move from darkness and despair
with no hope, to the light of His glory in the
Father. Through His perfect sacrifice, we are
bought with a price (1 Cor. 6:20. For you have
been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in
your body.) His precious blood atonement. We
become His servant. Jesus becomes our King to rule
over us in righteousness and love. Our command
from the Lord is to walk, by His example, in glory
and power and exalt the name of Jesus in all we
do. Jesus through His sacrifice and obedience,
even unto death, brought glory to God. We through
our praise and obedience even unto death bring to
Jesus, glory and honor. The Lord tells us in (1
Samuel 15:22. And Samuel said, "Has the Lord as
much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as
obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is
better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of
rams.") It is better to obey than sacrifice. We
cannot repay Him for the magnitude of His
sacrifice; but we exalt our Lord with our
submission in obedience to the Holy Spirit. Our
command is to walk in Light as given and to seek
His truth with an unquenchable fire.--Ron
