So when the night is at its darkest
Just hold on for the dawn will soon arrive

Can you feel the winds are changing
There’s a new day on the rise
And the atmosphere is breaking
As the new world comes to life

We will sing
We will dance
Till the earth echoes the heavens
Sing His praise
Till we see the other side

I’ve got a feeling
The darkness won’t last very longCHORUS 2:
Let a sleeping world awaken
There’s a new day on the rise
And the enemy is shaking
As the graveyards spring to life

We will sing
We will dance
Till the earth echoes the heavens
Sing His praise
Till we see the other side

Top 12 Easter Themed Songs.

Easter, that special time of the year believers all over the world celebrates the death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, irrefutably the most eccentric milestone in the Christian faith.

COGHIVE has always had a flair for organizing playlists, Mixtapes for her peculiar audience and as such we have decided to make a list of the best Easter themed songs for 2019, which might just be impeccably resourceful to Choirs, Music Groups and bands.

We would very much appreciate your feedback by indicating your top Easter themed songs at the comment section.
Here below is our list of top Easter themed songs,


1 – What A Beautiful Name – Hillsong Worship

Hillsong Worship is actually no stranger to making chart topping songs and What A Beautiful Name is just a screaming example of how their angelic song writing aptitude can be. Extolling Jesus for all he did and who he actually is by reason of all that transpired at the grave.

This Anthem essentially earned them their very first Grammy Awards back in 2018.


2 – Christ Is Risen – Bethel Music

Bethel Music has indeed become a force to reckon with given the A-list artists making their rosters: Cory Asbury, Steffany Gretzinger, Jeremy Riddle, Amanda Cook and others making a tremendous impact in Gospel music under the label.

Christ Is Risen is basically from Bethel Music’s Victory Album (2019), an awe inspiring song lead by Hunter G. K. Thompson. An Easter classic expressing the joy of Christ rising from the grave.


3 – Victory Belongs To Jesus – Todd Dulaney ft K.

At the mention of Todd Dulaney, the song that comes to mind is Victory Belongs To Jesus guess we can’t help it given that’s arguably one of the very best songs he has inked which has also birthed quite a number of versions with collaborations with other artists.

This version was at a live recording in South Africa featuring award winning South African vocalist K. Lebohang. Trust us for always giving you the latest.

4 – You Got Up – Travis Greene

Travis Greene is apparently someone that has nothing to prove in the music world at large ( He was nominated three consecutive times for the Grammies), Him being himself is just breathtaking and he has never dwindled in being a blessing in fact his influence in the past five years can not be overemphasised.

You Got Up is a Caribbean themed melody celebrating risen King, who clearly got up so we could get up again.


5 – Forever – Kari Jobe

Contemporary Christian Musician Kari Jobe, who only just became a mother of two back in Febuary has always had this aura of leading people to the very deepest part of worship with her Timeless ballads.

This particular version of Forever was that she did with Bethel Music at one of their concerts. Apparently we couldn’t resist not having it on this list.


6 – Reckless Love – Darrel Walls (Musiqcity)

We can’t talk about Easter and refrain talking about the overwhelming and never-ending reckless Love of God. This season depicts how far the Love of God is willing to come after us despite our countless shortcomings.

Darrel Walls, eldest member and leader of the multi-award winning group Walls Groups did a fine job making this Superb version a classic featuring Keith Richardson off his solo Ep project back in November 2018.


7 – Agreed – JJ Hairston and Youthfulpraise

JJ hairston is practically one of the best music directors of our time and he has evidently been in his prime lately as we have observed from the stellar performances from him and his endearing group Youthfulpraise.

“Knowing all he would have to go through, He Agreed”.

This is actually an anthem any choir would want to hop on, A classic JJ Hairston & Youthfulpraise on an Easter themed anthem.


8 – You Took The Nails – Vashawn Mitchell

Thanks to Vashawn Mitchell’s CROSS Ep, The famed gospel artist was able to earn “A Traditional Male Vocalist” of the year at the just concluded Stellars. Even as we anticipate his forthcoming project, we couldn’t resist not having this on our list.

We can’t imagine what he endured, we’ll never know the pain but the one thing we know is that we have been redeemed as a result all he did at Calvary. He took the nails for us.


9 – Jesus Is Alive – Shana Wilson Williams

Shana Wilson Williams has actually enjoyed quite a lot of features in many top notch projects in recent times. However, she pulled a stunner in her latest 13-track project Everlasting.

Jesus Is Alive is an upbeat Easter themed song off the Everlasting album. Jesus is not only alive, but he is alive in us.


10 – Mighty To Save – Israel Houghton

Grammy Award winning music maestro Israel Houghton has actually made a lot of anthems in the church today and it’s no surprise we are literally having three of his songs on this list.

The Ben Fielding written song has sustained quite a number of covers, remixes, and remakes. Israel is obviously not shying away from making his own version. Definitely timeless Easter piece.


11 – Resurrecting – Elevation Collective ft Walls Group

In a nutshell Elevation Collective is an assemblage of award winning artists which includes Tasha Cobbs Leonard, Israel Houghton, Travis Greene, The walls Group and Tye Tribbett collaborating with Elevation Worship to produce a single album EVIDENCE.

Having The Walls Group on Resurrecting was irrefutably Epic, It would be fair to assume it couldn’t have gotten any better. By his Spirit, we will rise, From the ashes of defeat, The resurrected King is resurrecting in us. Who else to proclaim his victory if not us.


12 – Raised to life – Elevation Collective Walls Group

The very last song but not the least is a continuation of the above song “Resurrecting” accompanied with series of chants.

Yes our sin was strong but Jesus was stronger, Our Shame was great but Jesus was greater. Indeed our redeemer was, is and will forever remain stronger and greater than our sin and shame. Glory!

“Sometimes we can get so frustrated by the news and what’s going on and there’s this battle going on in ourselves. Do we become apathetic? Do we become engaged? Do we just talk about it, or do we do something?” -John Legend

Beyond sitting, waiting, hoping and praying the one thing we can actually do to be better as humans is to find love where there is pain. Legend couldn’t have made this any clearer.

Lyrics

Every day I wake and,
Everything is broken,
Turning off my phone just to get out of bed.
Get home every evening,
And history’s repeating,
Turning off my phone cuz its hurting my chest.

And heaven knows I’m not helpless,
But what can I do?
I can’t see the use in me crying
If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

All I hear is voices,
Everybody’s talking,
Nothing real is happening, cause nothing is new.
Now when all is tragic,
And I just feel sedated,
Why do I feel numb, Is that all I can do?

And heaven knows I’m not helpless, yeah
But I’m only human.
Can’t see the use in me crying,
If I’m not even trying to make the change I want to see.

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

And heaven knows I’m not helpless,
What can I do?
Can’t see the use in me crying
If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

Falling to my knees
And though I do believe
I can’t just preach, baby, preach.

[Audio + Lyrics] Victory Shout – Monday Ghandy

Indigenous Oba Crooner and DEW (Desperate Worshipers) Frontman Monday Ghandy reflects on the Cross with heartfelt single VICTORY SHOUT.

“This song is my testimony, giving my life to Christ wasn’t funny at the beginning” The vocalist shared, “My past kept me wary because the devil kept accusing, by my retrospection. Many times l lived in frustration until I understood the love of God. I was pouring my love God with a group of friends and I started singing this song, The more we sang the more I saw Calvary and all that took place there just for me the more I saw my victory”.

The devil is perpetually in the habit of precluding believers from coming to the realization of all Jesus did, especially on the cross at calvary which is of cause the focal point of our faith. Monday Ghandy clearly wasn’t holding anything back while expressing the exceptional power of the blood.
