Jesus Is Our Brighter Hope

No event in history
Is more certainly confirmed
The grave’s without victory
For of our Lord we've learned…

Jesus is our brighter hope
Though sorrow comes with death
He helps us all to grieve and cope
He is our living breath

Our Lord is mighty to save
Though cruel spikes pierced His flesh
As followers we proclaim
He was not long left lifeless

He is our Deliverer
As, for us He sacrificed
He gave His all that we might live
Our Savior, Jesus Christ

Though we would salute His name
He desires not for fame
All He asks us that we do
Is share His light anew
