Since Christ's resurrection is central to the Christian faith, mention of his
resurrection occurs in literally thousands of songs and hymns. However, in the
ones below the theme of resurrection is more strongly developed. Lyrics and
tunes to the older hymns can usually be found in the
CyberHymnal (www.hymntime.com/tch/).
Lyrics and tunes to the newer hymns and choruses can often be found in the
Song Select feature of www.CCLI.com.
