They went to the grave in the first day of the week and He wasn’t there. Luke 24:1-12 NKJV

My Jesus defeated death….

I want you to say this poem to all your enemies who thought you would be down forever:

 

Still here

You may write me down in history

With your biter, twisted lies,

You may trod me in the very dirt.

But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?

Why are you beset with gloom?

‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells

Pumping in my living room.

Still I’ll rise

Did you want to see me broken?

Bowed head and lowered eyes?

Shoulders failing down like teardrops.

Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?

Don’t you take it awful hard?

‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines

Diggin’ in my own back yard.

You shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness

But still, like air, I’ll rise

Does it comes as a surprise

That I dance like I’ve got diamonds

While I don’t

Well my God is such 

A gentleman He opens doors for ladies

And as for man becomes a mediator between the screen and the hand

That way thing don’t have to get out of hands

H will never forsake me

The higher you build your barrier the taller I become

The farther you take my rights away the faster 

I will run
