In the early morning light, When the stone was rolled away, An empty tomb, a wondrous sight, Proclaimed the dawn of a new day. Mary wept, her heart so torn, 'Til angels spoke with voices clear, “Why seek the living among the dead? He is risen, do not fear.” He has risen, death’s been defeated, Hope restored, our souls are greeted, In His glory, we find our way, He has risen, love has the final say. On the road to Emmaus' town, Two walked with hearts weighed down, A stranger joined them on the way, Revealed Himself as light of day. In the breaking of the bread, Their eyes were opened wide, The risen Lord, just as He said, Now walks forever by our side. He has risen, death’s been defeated, Hope restored, our souls are greeted, In His glory, we find our way, He has risen, love has the final say. In the upper room, He appeared, "Peace be with you," He declared, Thomas touched His wounded side, "My Lord, my God," he cried. He has risen, death’s been defeated, Hope restored, our souls are greeted, In His glory, we find our way, He has risen, love has the final say. From the grave, He rose in power, In this moment, in this hour, We are saved, redeemed, and free, In His life, eternally.
