So here's a really quick version of Easter Song. Just putting this up on the site so those on our Modern Team can listen to it. I'll eventually be redoing this with the full band sound. I'm not one for remaking songs but back about three years ago, there was a request of me to have this song played during Easter. I wasn't a big fan of this song to begin with but there are great versions (look up Keith Green) and super cheesy/campy versions (look up Glad). I am not a big fan of remakes unless you make it your own so I completely redid the chorus to modernize it a little bit. Please note I do not take credit for writing this song. That honor belongs to Anne Herring.

Lyrics:
Verse 1: Hear the bells ringing
They're singing that we can be born again
Hear the bells ringing
They're singing Christ is risen from the dead
Bridge: The angel upon the tombstone said
He is risen just as He said
Quickly now go tell His disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Chorus: Joy to the world
He's the risen Lord, we sing alleluia
Joy to the world
He's the risen Lord, we sing alleluia
Verse 1: Hear the bells ringing
They're singing that we can be born again
Hear the bells ringing
They're singing Christ is risen from the dead
Bridge: The angel upon the tombstone said
He is risen just as He said
Quickly now go tell His disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Chorus: Joy to the world
He's the risen Lord, we sing alleluia
Joy to the world
He's the risen Lord, we sing alleluia
