The Love of Our Truest Friend is an Easter song that relates the new life we see and feel in spring time to the resurrection and teachings of Jesus Christ. It also expresses the peace and hope that comes from the knowledge of His resurrection, as well as our gratitude for it as well as what He does for us each day as we live our lives.

Perfect for Easter or other worship services.

Text

When birds begin to sing their song
And winter's chill departs,
As sunshine warms and days seem long,
Hope swells within our hearts.

Chorus
Because he rose,
Because he lives,
We too will live again.
Through his love and grace,
As we choose his way.
We will grow to understand
The love of our truest Friend.

As we ponder on the empty tomb,
The stone that rolled away,
Our fears are swallowed by the truth
Of a glorious, hopeful day.

[Chorus]

He lives, our Lord and King,
What peace and hope this knowledge brings.
He lives, and so we'll sing.
Let our thanks in grateful chorus ring!

When we embrace the risen Lord
And follow in His way,
He'll bind our wounds and make us whole,
He'll lift us day by day.

[Chorus]

Because he rose
And lives again
We feel the love of our truest Friend.
