"He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem."
-Isaiah 53:3
"Having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross."
-Colossians 2:14
""He himself bore our sins" in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; "by his wounds you have been healed.""
-1 Peter 2:24

-John 3:16
"Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die."
-John 11:25-26
"I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me."
-Phillippians 3:10-12
"Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once and for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus."
-Romans 6:8-11
My Savior Lives
Our God wil reign forever
And all the world will know His name
Everyone together sing the song of the redeemed
I know that my redeemer lives
And now I stand on what He did
My Savior, my Savior lives
Every day a brand new chance to say
"Jesus, You are the only way"
My Savior, my Savior lives
The King has come from Heaven
And darkness trembles at His name
Victory forever is the song of the redeemed
I know that my redeemer lives
And now I stand on what He did
My Savior, my Savior lives
Every day a brand new chance to say
"Jesus, You are the only way"
My Savior, my Savior lives
My Savior lives, My Savior lives,
My Savior lives,
My Savior lives,
My Savior lives, My Savior lives!
