Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed! The living God has poured out precious blood to reclaim us, His people. This blueprint is the heart of the gospel, and Jay Rouse and Rose Aspinall have made that incredible gift central to the creation of this musical. Beginning with Jay's modern setting of the beloved hymn "Crown Him with Many Crowns" to the triumphant, gospel-infused finale, "He's Risen, Hallelujah!," the work of the cross is celebrated and reverenced with emotion, warmth, sorrow, and rejoicing. The anchor song, "It Took a Lamb," is a classic from Geron Davis, while "This is How We Know What Love Is" provides an original offering that tells the story and excitement of running to the tomb and finding the stone rolled away. Your congregation will want to sing along with "The Blood of Jesus Medley" and will be drawn into worship by "There is a Fountain." These six very accessible songs can be used in their entirety or across the Easter season as a beautiful 30-minute work. |
