This gorgeous worship song is a beautiful reminder of what Easter is really about. Jesus Christ, our Savior, who shed His blood for us. And hearing these children singing the Good News of Easter makes the lyrics even more powerful.

'Risen' Lyrics Proclaim Jesus' Sacrifice
“To set the captives free
Risen
To ransom you and me
To bind up every broken heart
To conquer death and sin.
Risen
To bring us home again.”
For years, Shawna Edwards has been writing beautiful Christian songs. And her primary motivation is to share the love of Jesus with others.
“I write songs to share my faith in Jesus Christ," Shawna writes on her website. "I'm grateful for everyone who sings, plays or listens to them. I hope that together, we can spread Christ's message, and invite others to come unto Him and find joy, peace and rest.”
Children Singing Easter Songs
When releasing her latest Easter song, 'Risen', Shawn teamed up with the One Voice Children's Choir. And there's nothing quite like the innocence of children singing about our risen Lord to get your heart ready for Easter Sunday.
“And in that barren place the world forever changed
For hope was born when Jesus rose that day
And still His wounded hands reveal the love He has
For every fallen soul He came to save”
