these are the truths that the Christian believes,
this is the basis of all of our preaching:
Christ died for sinners and rose from the tomb.

Christ has fulfilled what the Scriptures foretold,
Adam’s whole family in death had been sleeping,
Christ through his rising restores us to life.
3. These are the facts as we have received them;
we, with our Saviour, have died on the cross;
now, having risen, our Jesus lives in us,
gives us his Spirit and makes us his home.
4. These are the facts as we have received them:
we shall be changed in the blink of an eye,
trumpets shall sound as we face life immortal,
this is the victory through Jesus our Lord.
5. These are the facts as we have received them,
these are the truths that the Christian believes,
this is the basis of all of our preaching;
Christ died for sinners and rose from the tomb.
