I love the resurrection!!!
Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is declared to be the Son of God with power by His resurrection from the dead:
Romans 1:
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ

BECAUSE HE LIVES and ONLY BECAUSE HE LIVES HE IS MESSIAH... THE ONLY TRUE LIVING G-D!!! AND ONLY BECAUSE HE LIVES IT'S ALL REAL OR IT IS LIKE PAUL SAID IF HE DID NOT WE ARE THE PEOPLE MOST PITIED!!! Y-SHUA IS ALIVE! Y-SHUA IS ALIVE!! Y-SHUA IS ALIVE!!! AND BECAUSE G-D IS NOT DEAD WILL LIVE TOO.... IT DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS LIFE....

so glad you watched (and liked) it mcubed.
There are versions of the song which last about 6 mins (give or take), and they do not include the reading (starting at 6:43). However, I just love that reading because it is such a beautiful tribute in gratitude to our Heavenly Father and to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Who came to free mankind from the bondage of sin.
So thankful for your heart, mcubed. Passover is powerful. A release from bondage ... an invitation to follow God from the bondage of sin to the abundance of blessings of the Promised Land.

There is one story I have heard as a child during the Easter Sunday sermon in our church (not sure, thou, if it is based on true events)
In 1930 N.I. Bukharin (communist and Russian member of the Politburo) took a journey from Moscow to Kiev to address a huge assembly about atheism. Addressing the crowd, he aimed his heavy artillery at Christianity hurling insults, argument, and proof against it.
He talked and talked and talked and when he finally finished after an hour his speech, he looked out at what seemed to be the smoldering ashes of men’s faith and asked demanding:
“Are there any questions?”
Deafening silence filled the auditorium but then one man approached the platform and mounted the lectern standing near the communist leader. He surveyed the crowd first to the left then to the right. Finally, he shouted the ancient greeting very known well in the Russian Orthodox Church:
“KHRISTOS VOSKRES!” (Christ is risen!)
And a crowd arose as one man and the response came crashing like the sound of thunder:
“VOISTINU VOSKRES!” (He is risen indeed!)
