Easter Worship Songs

I was buried beneath my shame
Who could carry that kind of weight?
It was my tomb
‘Til I met You

I was breathing, but not alive
All my failures I tried to hide
It was my tomb
‘Til I met You

You called my name
Then I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day

Now Your mercy has saved my soul
Now Your freedom is all that I know
The old made new
Jesus, when I met You, whoa, what a day

When you called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
Then I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day

I needed rescue
My sin was heavy
But chains break at the weight of Your glory
I needed shelter
I was an orphan
But You call me a citizen of Heaven
When I was broken
You were my healing
Now Your love is the air that I’m breathing
I have a future
My eyes are open

‘Cause when you called my name
I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day

I’m shaking off the heaviness
I’m dancing out of my regrets
I’m throwing caution to the wind
No, I am not ashamed to praise like this

Some would say it’s foolishness
But I say it’s worth the risk
I can’t forget what Jesus did
No, I am not ashamed to praise like this

Where are those chains that once held me?
I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, I’m free
My sin is gone, how can it be?
I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, I’m free

And look at what the Lord has done
I’m never going back to the way I was
I’ll sing, I’ll dance ’cause I believe
I’m free, I’m free, thank God, I’m free (hey)

I found a Friend that never quits
No other love’s as good as this
And I don’t care what anyone says
I’ll never be ashamed to praise like this

Where are those chains that once held me?
I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, I’m free
My sin is gone, how can it be?
I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, I’m free

Look at what the Lord has done
I’m never going back to the way I was
I’ll sing, I’ll dance ’cause I believe
I’m free, I’m free (thank God, I’m free)

You took the cross and You broke Your body
You shed Your blood, now the sinner can sing
My debt is paid and my record is clean
I couldn’t do it, so You did it for me

Where are those chains that once held me?
I’m free, I’m free (come on, you sound good), I’m free, I’m free
My sin is gone, how can it be? (I’m free)
I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, I’m free (look at what the Lord)

Look at what the Lord has done
I’m never going back to the way I was (I’ll sing)
I’ll sing, I’ll dance ’cause I believe (I’m free)
I’m free, I’m free, thank God, I’m free (hey)

Oh, the perfect Son of God
In all His innocence
Here walking in the dirt with you and me
He knows what living is
He’s acquainted with our grief
Man of sorrows, Son of suffering

The blood and tears
How can it be?
There’s a God who weeps
There’s a God who bleeds
Oh, praise the One
Who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering

Some imagine You
Are distant and removed
But You chased us down in merciful pursuit
To the sinner You were grace
And the broken You embraced
And in the end, the proof is in Your wounds
Yes, in the end, the proof is in Your wounds

Blood and tears
How can it be?
There’s a God who weeps
There’s a God who bleeds
Oh, praise the One
Who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering


Your cross, my freedom
Your stripes, my healing
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God in Heaven
Your blood, still speaking
Your love, still reaching
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God forever

I cannot explain, but nothing’s more real than this
In the presence of God, oh, what my heart experienced
When my shame hit the wayside
And my sin met the Most High
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside

Everything changed
It’s getting harder to recognize
The person I was
Before I encountered Christ
I don’t walk like I used to
I don’t talk like I used to
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside out

Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood

I cannot explain
But nothing’s more real than this
In the presence of God
Oh, what my heart experienced
When my shame hit the wayside
And my sin met the Most High
I was washed from the inside
I was washed from the inside out

Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood

It’s never been about performance
Perfection or striving for acceptance
Let me tell you
It’s only by the blood
It’s never been about deserving or earning
It’s a gift that’s freely given
Let me tell you
It’s only by the blood

Does anybody wanna be holy, righteous
Purified and spotless?
Let me tell you
It’s only by the blood
Does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven
Justified, really living?
Let me tell you
It’s only by the blood

Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I know it was the blood
Could’ve only been the blood

What can I say?
Thank You is not enough
Jesus, Your grace
Your mercy poured out for us
I will love You forever
Here on Earth into Heaven
I’ve been washed from the inside
I’ve been washed from the inside out

What can wash away our sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Oh! precious is the flow
That makes us white as snow;
No other fount we know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

For our pardon, this we see,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For our cleansing this our plea,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
Nothing good that we have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

This is all our hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all our righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

I’ll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain (yeah)
I’ll praise when I’m sure
And praise when I’m doubting (yes, sir)

I’ll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
‘Cause praise is the water
My enemies drown in

As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul

I’ll praise when I feel it
And I’ll praise when I don’t
I’ll praise ’cause I know
You’re still in control

Because my praise is a weapon
It’s more than a sound (more than a sound)
Oh, my praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down

As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
praise the Lord
Oh, my soul

I won’t be quiet, my God is alive
So how could I keep it inside?
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul

I’ll praise ’cause You’re sovereign
Praise ’cause You reign
Praise ’cause You rose and defeated the grave
I’ll praise ’cause You’re faithful
Praise ’cause You’re true
Praise ’cause there’s nobody greater than You, I’ll praise

And I’m forgiven because You were forsaken
And I’m accepted, You were condemned
And I’m alive and well
Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again

Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, would die for me?
Amazing love, I know it’s true
Now it’s my joy to honor You
In all I do I honor You
