Looking, Preparing for Easter gospel songs

Just any Easter song you can find, such as He is risen, He arose. Put the lyrics on here, and I appreciate it very much.
Maybe other musicians will sing them too.
Easter songs I consider to be about Jesus rising from the dead etc.
Good Easter category
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Some classics are "Low In The Grave He Lay" or "Christ Arose (I've seen both titles) but that one may not be the most comfortable for children. The chorus has some very high notes. I sing bass so there's no problem for me but there would be if I had to lead that one!

One beautiful Easter song that doesn't get much use these days is Charles Wesley's "Christ The Lord Is Risen Today".

For those favoring something kinda-sorta contemporary, 2nd Chapter oF Acts song "Hear The Bells Ringing" is one of my all time favorites. One time at church, the soloist, who had a tremendous range, nearly raised the roof when she hit that high note near the end!

And for a simple chorus, "He is Lord, He is Lord; He has risen from the dead and He is Lord! Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess, that Jesus Christ is Lord". I don't remember the author or composer.

Hoping this helps!

Jesus ain't dead anymore, he did what he came here for. The church got the good news, the devil got the bad news, Jesus ain't dead anymore.
This song is on youtube by Betty Robinson. So beautiful.

Tips for transcribing songs from video. Let it play a sentence, then type it on document, a little at a time, until you get your whole song. If you have trouble understand the words they sing, put earphones on, this closes out all other noises.

HOPE THIS HELPS, HAPPY EASTER TOMORROW. IF YOU'RE GOING TO GET EASTER SONGS BETTER HURRY AND GET THE LEAD OUT

Jesus Christ Is Risen Today
I Know That My Redeemer Lives
The Strife is O'er
Rejoice and Be Glad

Here are a few hymns I didn't know before, but thanks to the members of our community for posting them and keeping them alive.

Worthy Is the Risen Lamb
He Is Risen
May the Book of Life Never Close
The Stone Was Rolled Away

Have a wonderful Easter, and never forget that our Redeemer lives! :)
