| [00:05.29] |
The gates and doors were barred |
| [00:13.37] |
And all the windows fastened down |
| [00:15.14] |
I spent the night in sleeplessness |
| [00:17.61] |
And rose at every sound |
| [00:20.38] |
Half in hope of sorrow |
| [00:22.74] |
And half in fear the day |
| [00:25.27] |
Would find the soldiers breakin' through |
| [00:27.98] |
To drag us all away |
| [00:34.24] |
And just before the sunrise |
| [00:36.79] |
I heard something at the wall |
| [00:39.19] |
The gate began to rattle |
| [00:42.27] |
And a voice began to call |
| [00:44.46] |
I hurried to the window |
| [00:46.74] |
Looked down into the street |
| [00:49.46] |
Expecting swords and torches |
| [00:54.15] |
And the sound of soldiers' feet |
| [00:57.09] |
|
| [00:59.66] |
But there was no one there but Mary |
| [01:02.26] |
So I went down to let her in |
| [01:04.92] |
John stood there beside me |
| [01:07.48] |
As she told me where she'd been |
| [01:09.84] |
She said they've moved Him in the night |
| [01:12.73] |
And none of us know where |
| [01:15.24] |
The stone's been rolled away |
| [01:17.22] |
And now His body isn't there |
| [01:20.89] |
|
| [01:21.79] |
We both ran towards the garden |
| [01:24.17] |
Then John ran on ahead |
| [01:26.59] |
We found the stone and empty tomb |
| [01:29.19] |
Just the way that Mary said |
| [01:31.68] |
But the winding sheet they wrapped Him in |
| [01:34.11] |
Was just an empty shell |
| [01:36.84] |
And how or where they'd taken Him |
| [01:38.85] |
Was more than I could tell |
| [01:41.64] |
|
| [01:43.23] |
Oh something strange had happened there |
| [01:48.14] |
Just what I did not know |
| [01:50.89] |
John believed a miracle |
| [01:53.42] |
But I just turned to go |
| [01:55.81] |
Circumstance and speculation |
| [01:58.32] |
Couldn't lift me very high |
| [02:01.98] |
'Cause I'd seen them crucify Him |
| [02:04.61] |
Then I saw Him die |
| [02:11.06] |
|
| [02:11.90] |
Back inside the house again |
| [02:14.86] |
The guilt and anguish came |
| [02:17.65] |
Everything I'd promised Him |
| [02:21.51] |
Just added to my shame |
| [02:23.93] |
When at last it came to choices |
| [02:26.00] |
I denied I knew His name |
| [02:30.98] |
And even if He was alive |
| [02:34.88] |
It wouldn't be the same |
| [02:38.47] |
|
| [02:41.16] |
But suddenly the air was filled |
| [02:43.38] |
With a strange and sweet perfume |
| [02:46.04] |
Light that came from everywhere |
| [02:48.28] |
Drove shadows from the room |
| [02:51.66] |
And Jesus stood before me |
| [02:53.06] |
With His arms held open wide |
| [02:57.17] |
And I fell down on my knees |
| [02:59.40] |
And I just clung to Him and cried |
| [03:02.08] |
|
| [03:03.37] |
Then He raised me to my feet |
| [03:08.61] |
And as I looked into His eyes |
| [03:12.01] |
The love was shining out from Him |
| [03:15.18] |
Like sunlight from the skies |
| [03:17.72] |
Guilt in my confusion |
| [03:20.23] |
Disappeared in sweet release |
| [03:23.20] |
And every fear I ever had |
| [03:26.69] |
Just melted into peace |
| [03:32.84] |
|
| [03:33.83] |
He's alive yes He's alive |
| [03:47.53] |
Yes He's alive and I'm forgiven |
| [03:50.87] |
Heaven's gates are open wide |
| [03:52.88] |
He's alive yes He's alive |
| [03:57.80] |
Oh He's alive and I'm forgiven |
| [04:00.41] |
Heaven's gates are open wide |
| [04:03.11] |
He's alive He's alive |
| [04:05.66] |
Hallelujah He's alive |
| [04:08.26] |
He's alive and I'm forgiven |
| [04:10.96] |
Heaven's gates are open wide |
| [04:13.29] |
He's alive He's alive He's alive |
| [04:17.84] |
I believe it He's alive |
| [04:24.14] |
Sweet Jesus |
