If Christ had risen from the dead,
Why say of no resurrection;
When you can rise up from your bed,
With God and His interjection.
 
If there is no resurrection,
Then not even Christ has been raised;
Life then would be an infection,
Then God would no longer be praised.
 
Then our preaching would be in vain,
Your faith also be null and void;
Within your heart nothing would reign,
Your hope would also be destroyed.
 
Some has been misrepresenting,
Of God when they have testified;
They do not preach of repenting,
And why Jesus was crucified.
 
For if the dead would not be raised,
Then Christ would still be in His grave;
No need for the Lord to be praised,
Because our soul God would not save.
 
Futile faith living in sin,
For those who have fallen asleep;
Decay of the soul would begin,
Having no salvation to reap.
 
But in Jesus Christ we have hope,
We are people who have pitied;
Through this life helps us to cope,
Assuring we are embodied.
 
Jesus have been raised from the dead,
The firstfruits of them that have slept;
Saved because that Jesus had bleed,
For their souls in which Christ has kept.
 
For as by a man put to death,
By a man came resurrection;
For as in Adam lost his breath,
Christ alive shows His affection.
