The Night Before Easter

Lyrics

The night was so different from all the rest And the silence covers the Earth The stars have no glimmer, the moon tries to hide For in death lies the man of their birth In a room filled with sorrow, a mother cries For Jesus, her Son now is gone Her child sent from heaven was taken away Heartbroken, she feels all alone At the feet of his mother, a little boy cries Sayin', "Momma, I don't understand" I remember the look of love in His eyes That I saw when he touched my hand The king of all ages, the giver of life For a moment, lies silent and still Mm, but powers sent from the heaven comes breakin' the night And death must bow to His will (to His will) Then a stone moves, the Earth shakes and birds start singin' The sun shines, the Earth warms for new life is springin' And the little boy stops cryin', a mother is smilin' For death could not hold their King Then a stone moves (a stone moves) The Earth shakes (the Earth shakes) and birds start singin' The sun shines (the sun shines) The Earth warms (the Earth warms) for new life is springin' And the little boy stops cryin', the mother is smilin' For death could not hold their King (death could not hold Him) For death could not hold their King (death could not hold their King)
