It was morning
When they went to the tomb;
It was morning
When they found Him gone;
The angel said, "He's not here,
He's arisen! Go tell His disciples."
It was morning
When they went to find
Peter, James, and the rest,
And it was morning
When they came running,
Finding--
The linen they laid Him in,
Folded.
Mary asked,
One she thought was the gardener,
"Where have they taken Him?"
He said,
"Mary."
And she knew
Jesus stood before her now.
It was morning
When she rejoiced.
God had raised Jesus
From the dead.
"HE's ALIVE!!
Yes, Jesus' alive.
He'll be there for you
Count on Him when others
Let you down,
'Cause He'll be there
He's promised this to us.
