Verses from the Easter Sunday scriptures and hymns to ponder this week:

Give thanks to the Lord, for the Lord is good;
God’s mercy endures forever. (Psalm 118: 1)
The Lord is my strength and my song,
And has become my salvation. (Psalm 118: 14)
This is the day that the Lord has made;
Let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118: 24)
If you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. (Col. 3: 1)
Set your minds on the things that are above, not on the things that are on earth, for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. (Col 3: 2-3)
The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has been raised, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.” (Matt. 28: 5-6)
The women left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy and ran to tell his disciples. (Matt. 28: 8)
Hymns of praise then let us sing, Alleluia!
Unto Christ our heav’nly king, Alleluia!
Who endured the cross and grave, Alleluia!
Sinners to redeem and save, Alleluia! (Jesus Christ Is Risen Today, Alleluia! v.2)
He lives to silence all my fears; he lives to wipe away my tears;
He lives to calm my troubled heart; he lives with blessings to impart. (I Know That My Redeemer Lives, v. 4)
He lives, all glory to his name! He lives, my Savior, still the same;
What joy this blest assurance gives; I know that my Redeemer lives! (I Know That My Redeemer Lives, v. 8)
