The Easter Story
on Good Friday night
He wept in loud voice
to set all things right
For three long hours
darkness covered the land
the great curtain was torn
never again to stand
They grieved His suffering
for all of our lies
and prayed for God
to reopen their eyes
They wept for His death
and mourned for His pain
they rejected the sin
that continued through Cain
They placed his strong body
inside a cold tomb
They rolled a large stone
to seal the dark room
But some feared the truth
so they guarded the place
They sealed the large stone
right down to the base
But Easter still dawned
Warm and quite sunny
what was found at the tomb
was all very funny
The stone was rolled 'way
When they came there at dawn
they soon discovered
His body was gone!
Then an angel appeared
Saying 'don't be afraid'
He is risen from death
all our sins have been paid
They ran to tell others
Filled with joy and much glee
When Jesus then met them
Saying 'meet me in Galilee'
When they told the disciples
they went up to the city
They met Him with doubt
but never with pity
He rebuked their little faith
and their refusal to believe
after seeing Him risen
upon which he grieved
He said 'go into the world
and preach the good news
That I have risen from death
and it isn't a ruse'
Then He ascended to heaven,
so with all of their might
The disciples went out
and fought the good fight!
