Good morning and welcome to our Easter Sunday worship – a day of life and hope!

Our service begins with the great hymn “Christ the Lord is risen today”: here is a choice of three versions – take your pick!

1. A classic choral version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzy7jFNUc3w

2. An upbeat modern rendition (though still based around the familiar tune): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff5N8wLwqIQ

3. A full works “Hollywood” version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9khJXoL9QGk

We close with a declaration of faith: “Christ is alive” from the choir of a Methodist church in Houston, Texas, with a lovely organ accompaniment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD8pxDgTZZU

Happy Easter!
