Easter is the most meaningful day for me. It’s the day I remember and celebrate the precious gift God gave me. At an early age in 1976, I became a believer and follower of Jesus Christ who died on the cross for me to give me new life that can only be found in Him. Jesus did not only die on the cross but He rose from the dead …

Every time I sing this song at church or at home, it brings joy to my heart as I contemplate God’s greatness and what a blessing it is to know Him and to serve Him in all I do.
