Just outside the city...a garden expressing it's beauty
Early in the morning...the song birds fulfilling there duty
Shadows running across the ground
As the light was coming around
Dew glimmered in the flowers and the grass
Earth's longest night ever, has passed
Ladies lift up their heads in surprise
They simply could not believe their eyes
The stone has been rolled out of place
Revealing what was now an empty space
Two angels stood shining with Glory
Shared with them the resurrection story
He is not here, He said He would rise
They're story was received as nothing but lies
But Peter and John to the tomb did race
There they found as stated, an empty place
Now one certain Mary returned to the grave
And asked the gardner for His body to save
Mary said He, Please do not cry
Go and tell the others that it is I
I told you I would suffer in Friday's shame
But now ...as promised...SUNDAY CAME!
I have stood at the tomb...IN the tomb that many believe is THE actual tomb... as I stood there, I could not help but notice HE WASN'T THERE!!!
Actually that is not true...He was there, but this time He was there as a permanant resident in my heart, Praise the Lord.
To see that slab carved out of the hillside where the grave clothes were folded and laid that morning as Jesus no longer had a need for the tomb...the original owner could have it back as it was no longer occupied...
The darkness of Friday has passed...Saturdays cloud of despair was cast...Sunday is here at last... Hallelujah what a Savior!
Happy Easter!
