Matthew
[Opening Chorus] He is risen. The stone is rolled away. He is risen. The night has lost the day. Why seek the living among the dead? The gravecloth lies where the body had been. He is risen. He is risen indeed. [Verse 1] Before the sunrise women carried Spices through the garden gloom. They wondered who would move the stone, But heaven had opened up the tomb. An angel sat where fear had guarded; Soldiers shook and fell like dead. "Come see the place, then go and tell them: He has risen as He said." [Post-Chorus] Run from the garden. Tell the eleven. Death has been broken. Hope has been given. [Verse 2] Peter and John raced to the doorway; One arrived, the other went in. Linen lay folded, the body absent; Wonder struggled to begin. Mary wept and turned behind her, Thought the gardener spoke nearby. One spoken name unveiled the Master; Sorrow lifted from her eyes. [Final Chorus] He is risen. The first day burns with grace. He is risen. The grave has lost its place. Go tell the brethren, fear no more; Life walked out through the sealed stone door. He is risen. He is risen indeed.
