Can't help but tear up at that last line "My Son, arise!"

It gets me too everytime.

Watching in 2024...so powerful ❤

[@ursulaluana4284]

I love very much this song! Jesus is alive❤😍

[@-Dragon-Master-]

Just like every Easter I must listen to this song such a beautiful and powerful song

[@Knightwingz]

This Easter morning, I'm again, moved by this musical masterpiece, that really grabs a hold of the inner spirit, and reaffirms the promise of resurrection, and redemption, through the brutal sacrifice and spilling of blood, by the spotless Lamb of God, Jesus. I am ever so thankful, that the story did not end there, but then illuminated the darkness, when the Word made flesh, rose from the dead, and fulfilled His promise! Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!~

[@wagnersouza2899]

Thanks Jesus for the sacrifice of the cross! The hope has always been you! Theocracy, for these and other incredible compositions that is the best Christian metal band today!

[@LuizHenrique-od4ko]

He died but was Raised from the dead. He Lives!

[@Goddigger777]

Jakob Andersen Yes He surely died and this case was the most documented case in all human history. 300 prophecy were also fulfilled on the same time witch is mind blowing. In really invite you to watch the movie “the case for Christ” that is based on a true story if you’re also looking for the truth! ;) be bless Jesus is not only well alive today He loves you unconditionally! Many testimonies and a lot of good music is also available on my playlist.

@@Goddigger777 yeah I concur. I actually bought the book series that movie is based on. Jesus IS very Alive and Very Real. The Savior and redeemer loves us all and sacrificed himself for us. Praise the Lord.

[@FreelanceDev4life]

The only metal band that can make me cry. Another great song!

[@davekauffman8727]

Amen, Mirror of Souls gets me every time I hear it, this band is truly a ministry for the Lord ❤️🙏

[@TomPlantagenet]

Thought I was the only one.

[@robertbennion3166]

It's so sad that some people out there do not believe or refuse to believe there is a Jesus the savior, Messiah, Redeemer... All because they say "There's No Proof" "Show Me the Proof" when there is documented evidence of his existence. I truly feel sorry for those lost people.

I've listened to this so many times, but the end never fails to run chills down my spine.

[@bartbrownlaw1692]

Can’t not cry during last 2 min... which makes it awkward on elliptical machine at workout place 😀👍

[@angelsegura3922]

Grande Theocracy, Gloria a Dios en el cielo y en la tierra

[@onfire4Jesus2]

I started crying as well. So powerful!

[@Imorajna]

I keep coming back to this one. Those last 2 minutes are truly heaven sent

[@Spankedchicken]

Matt once again proving he is unparalleled as a songwriter

[@crufflerrick]

He Reminds me of Kerry Livgren ( from the old group Kansas). Both excellent writers and composers! And men of faith these days!

[@teddyboehm9252]

Spankedchicken that's true he is in a class by himself right now

[@boycesinbrazil]

Romeo is a gifted musician, no doubt. It is personal preference. But, Matt is doing it for Jesus and His glory; Michael is doing it for himself and for his own glory. Who is rewarded in the end? Matt is the real deal.

[@jakobfel2]

IMO, Matt's musicianship, particularly in his vocal work and writing, is unbeatable.

[@cristobalcampos1513]

The risen Savior our redeemer and light of the world is in us. How awesome is our God. Hallelujah!!

[@chillymilly6063]

"glory glory hope is alive! and lifted up- before your eyes...." the gloriest and mightiest melody I've heard for years.

[@MaidenFinland25]

This is one of the best songs I know as "rising towards the end". Matt Smith, perfection as a songwriter, singer and a musician. Amazing.

[@jakobfel2]

If you like that style, you definitely should check out their 22-minute epic, Mirror of Souls. This song is like a condensed version of that song. I've heard a lot of incredible music in my life but I still consider Mirror of Souls to be the pinnacle of human music. Nothing has ever beat it IMO.

[@Colbartson]

Thanks to Ulterium Records and Theocracy! Well done in communicating a message that has not lost its divine message of hope to all that are searching beyond the status quo. "Glory! Glory! Hope has arrived and lifted high above our eyes."So Glory to God the father for defeating death and for Jesus to show his love for us by dying for our sins. "Be not afraid, your price is paid!"

Thank you Theocracy for such a great song! It is nice to have a great rock band serving the Lord Jesus Christ. I love Jesus and I love Metal music. I enjoy praising my savior listening to great music. He's alive and I'm forgiven... (Don Francisco). Anyway, yes Jesus has risen and we too will rise with Him. Those who believe in him and follow his ways that is.

[@vitorbeurenandrade4213]

Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

[@pamela-tejaimcgee6913]

This CD is different than the others in style and form, yet it is my favorite because I see the maturity of your relationship with the Lord and a new level of boldness that can only come as we let God have His way with us. The result is always is not only powerful, it is eternal!

[@moonboy8552]

[@cornerstonecommunity2790]

3:08 is why Theocracy is the greatest hope for those of us who have given our lives to follow the wandering prophet of Galilee and who's hearts yearn for greatness and power in how music can translate the Good News into songs of hope for the whole world to hear.

This is by far the best musical telling of the Easter story. From someone who has been going to Easter sunrise services every year for 18 years, listening to the same songs gets tiring. However, this is a masterpiece.

Lyrics Below: Three days in darkness far below Death hearkens from an ago ago The ancient promise that we waited for so long Has gone away All hope is lost, left upon that cross A bloodstained robe It seems redemption's dream has died Visions and the prophecies all washed away in vain Groanings of creation as it cries out in pain Sacrosanct the stories of what is and what will be All foretold this was supposed to end so differently All nature mourns in unison Creation forms its requiem Branded with the mark of sin and shame A life laid down, a cursed name A crown forsaken, burden, blame Another cycle just the same Is this the end of Promise Dying all alone? Easter morning's Son will rise Radiance warming tearstained eyes The Son of Man shall be raised up on the third day The grave denied Run and see the stone has rolled away behold the way They're trembling in terror at the grave (Is this an empty promise, that we've been waiting for? Because I'm so afraid to get my hopes anymore Is this a cruel illusion? Or could it really be The miracle of miracles unfolding right in front of me?) Blinding angel, white as lightning Violent earthquakes, do not fear Why seek the living among the dead? Behold, He is not here Glory! Glory! Hope is alive And lifted up, before your eyes Waking all the world, open gates to paradise Now it's done Life has come Death has died Easter glory, what an ending to the story My So, arise! Early misty morning Just before the dawn An empty tomb, a broken body gone Thieves have done their bidding Before the light of day They've stolen Him and taken Him away Let Me break apart The secrets you've held in your heard Awaken now Remember Words you hid away A promise to rise after the third day It's Me Do you remember? All the things we'd hoped for And waited for so long The kingdom of deliverance is gone Faded like a candle snuffed out to kill the light The morning runs away into the night Let Me break apart The secrets you've held in your heard Awaken now Remember Words you hid away A promise to rise after the third day It's Me Do you remember? Glory! Glory! Hope is alive And lifted up, before your eyes Waking all the world, open gates to paradise Now it's done Life has come Death has died Easter glory, what an ending to the story My So, arise! Glory! Glory! Hope is alive And lifted up, before your eyes Waking all the world, open gates to paradise Now it's done Life has come Death has died Easter glory, what an ending to the story My So, arise! (Earth awaken, all creation open up your eyes again Alive again, for Christ hath torn the veil of darkness away) Easter glory, what an ending to the story My Son, arise!

Idk if anyone watches it (not a whole lot of my friends and family are fans of prog metal, &/or have 10 minutes to spare lol), but it's the best musical portrayal of this amazing day in history that I know of. It's such a beautiful song, and I get chills EVERY TIME I listen to it. It's also very worshipful in its form, and I really appreciate it when a rock or metal artist can do that with a song. God bless you, Theocracy & Ulterium Records, from one of your biggest fans in the States, and Happy Easter! He is Risen!
