Early In The Morning

lyrics

Early in the morning, on the first day of the week
As the first ray of dawn touches the ground,
The earth stirs

The clouds glow with heavenly fire as the night retreats,
And through this half-light two women walk
While the earth wakes

As they draw closer to the tomb of their master,
The shadows shrink, The darkness dissolves, The silence breaks,
And the earth moves

Violently the ground convulses and cracks, Rocks shift and boulders roll
Terrified the women race towards the tomb, find the entrance wide open
And in that moment the earth stills

They move forward with the morning light, And as they enter the air feels alive
Inside they see the grave-clothes empty, the body gone
And they wonder

Suddenly a figure appears, brighter than the sun still climbing the horizon
They fall to their knees, hide their eyes, and here in the tomb as the third day begins,
The angel speaks

Do not be afraid… Why do you look for the living among the dead?
He is not here… The darkness has been defeated
Jesus has risen

You're beautiful
