Traditional Easter Hymns and Songs

Psalm 96:1-2 “Sing to the LORD a new song; Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.”

What better way to honor the sacrifice Jesus made, and celebrate the hope He offered to us through His sacrifice, than with songs of praise and love!

Whether you’re in your car driving to work, at church for Sunday service, or in the kitchen prepping Easter dinner, these hymns and songs are sure to get you in the spirit of the Easter!

Classic Easter Hymns

If you walk into any Lutheran, Baptist, or Catholic church on Easter Sunday, you’re likely to hear one or more of these traditional hymnals about Easter. Now everyone, turn to Hymnal 504!

The Old Rugged Cross

This sweet hymnal is one I remember singing with my elementary school class during Friday morning Chapel. It was written in 1913 by George Bennard, and while it is a traditional Easter hymn, this version by Alan Jackson blends it beautifully into a modern country variation.

Christ the Lord is Risen Today

Christ, the Lord is risen today, Sons of men and angels say, Alleluia! This classic hymnal, written in 1739 by Charles Wesley, tells of triumph of Jesus Christ over the sin of the world, and how we can rejoice in knowing we can have everlasting life because of His sacrifice.

Because He Lives

An new hymn, but a beautiful one! ‘Because he lives, I can face tomorrow. Because he lives, all fear is gone!’ Because Jesus Christ died for our sins, we know that one day, we’ll be in Heaven with Him one day. That fact can give us encouragement when times are difficult.

Contemporary Worship Songs

If you’re part of a non-denominational church, these songs are likely a bit more up your alley.

In Christ Alone

Christ died on the cross so that we would be able to find salvation through Him. That is the only way to reach Heaven. ‘In Christ Alone’ is about that fact. There was only one who was perfect, only one who could make a path for us, only one who could rise up again, and that one was Christ!

Jesus Saves

He came to this world to save us, and that’s what He did. In ‘Jesus Saves’, we sing about letting the world know what He did for us that day! “Raise a shout to let all the world know that Jesus saves!”

Happy Day

Easter is about both remembering Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, but also celebrating his triumphant resurrection! ‘Happy Day’ is about the latter! This upbeat Easter song will have everyone up on their feet dancing!

Easter Songs for Kids

Jesus Loves Me

Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so! No matter what time of year it is, ‘Jesus Loves Me’ is the most beloved Christian children’s song. It reminds us that Jesus loved us so much that He died for us so we could go to Heaven one day!

This Little Light of Mine

Jesus brought light into the world when he died on the cross. Now it’s our turn to be a light to others! I don’t know about you, but I’m going to let mine shine!

The Joy Joy Joy

When you accept that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, you invite the Holy Spirit to live within your heart. And because He is Love, you’ve got the ‘Joy Joy Joy Joy’ down in your heart!

I hope you and your family enjoy these songs this Easter!

Cute Christian Mother’s Day Poems

You have touched your mom’s heart since the day she knew about you, and then when she laid eyes on you, forget it! She was captivated by the little miracle that lay in her arms and knew that she was now on a lifelong journey, giving her a woman’s greatest purpose. Flash forward to Mother’s Day. Giving her a gift that touched her heart as deeply might just be impossible, but it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try!

Christian Mother’s Day Poems

When it comes to gift-giving on Mother’s Day, one need not to look further than writing Christian Mother’s Day poems! Not only will they touch a mother’s heart in places a store-bought gift can’t touch, but she will cherish it forever! Now, there are a few ways to go about giving Christian Mother’s Day poems as gifts:

  • On paper: The traditional way to write poems is simply by hand on a piece of paper. Sign and date it!
  • In a card: A card is a must on Mother’s Day, so if there is empty space on one of the sides of the card, feel free to fill it in with the poem!
  • In a frame: Typing the poem and printing it out on a nice piece of stationary, followed by framing it makes for a really nice keepsake gift that she can hang forever! My favorite.
  • A recording: There’s devices you can buy or even a stuffed animal that can record your voice. This is precious because your mom will always have your voice to hear!

Writing Christian Mother’s Day poems can be hard, so I wrote a few for you to read as examples and hopefully it will stir up some inspiration for you! You can also find some inspiration by reading through these Bible verses about mothers.

My Angel

A Mom is an angel
sent from above,
hand picked by God
to give us His love.

She shines so bright,
love from Holy light.
She makes the wrongs right,
even at night!

My mom is my angel.
Oh, yes she is!
She is loved by me,
she is loved by Him.

I Call Her Mom

Moms have a special place
in our hearts forever.
They guide us through the wildest journey
and manage to keep themselves together.

With the strength of a thousand men
and through the power of God,
a woman made a choice to keep me.
I love her, I call her MOM!

MOTHER

Most beautiful and
Optimistic person
There is.
Her strength is
Eternal, given by Him.
Rejoice! Hallelujah and thank you, Jesus!

God’s Creation

If it wasn’t for God, we wouldn’t exist.
He made us all, and there’s one thing he wouldn’t miss.
The qualities of a mother, and all it takes
to raise His children in his created place.

He knew just what he was doing. Oh, yes he did.
For when he made woman to care for kids
He gave her strength, He gave her patience,
He gave her unconditional love, oh what a special creation!

Thank you, God, for making mothers so amazing
I’m especially thankful for mine and all she’s done raising me!

A Choice Love

(A Poem for Adoptive Mothers)

A woman made the choice to love me
and then became my mother.
Even though she didn’t birth me,
I couldn’t pray for another!

She took me under her angelic wing
and raised me as her own.
If it weren’t for her, who knows where I’d be?
A “what if” that will remain unknown.

I owe it all to this amazing woman
who, by the grace of God
Took me in and taught me well.
Adopted moms, I applaud!

If you really need inspiration to write some good poems, though, one must look no further than their mother! After all, a mom’s abilities to do all that they do are astounding and clearly a gift from God, just as you were to her.
