Where is He? Where is Jesus of Nazareth?
Where is our crucified King? We’ve come to mourn Him, to weep and wail.
On Friday, we watched Him die.
This world bullied Him, beat Him, broke Him.
Man drove cruel nails through His hands and feet,
Raising Him on a cross of splintered wood.
Our Lord could’ve saved Himself—
Thousands of angels waited at His command.
But He didn’t call them down.
Where is our Jesus? Where is our Teacher and Friend—
The One we saw die a horrible death?
Have you carried Him away from this tomb?
Tell me where His body lays—that I may go to Him.
He is not here? He is risen? Our King is risen?
Jesus Christ lives! Joy and fear overcome me.
I tremble at the thought—our Lord vanquished death.
He alone is our hope and salvation.
Our King is not here. He is risen! • Janise Anderson
• What does the resurrection mean for you personally?
• Why didn’t Jesus save Himself while on the cross?
• How can you share this story of hope with those around you?
He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where the Lord was lying. Matthew 28:6 (WEB)
