He Is Risen Indeed!

Rain and renewal, the dark days have passed
The rebirth of Easter has come at last

The lonely betrayal, the brutal death
The grace of forgiveness with your last breath
The cold of the tomb your only release
From horror and sorrow; rest without peace.

But then, in the darkness, just before dawn
The hold of the grave is shattered and gone
The rock is rolled back, the sunlight breaks in
Life is renewed, for you’ve risen again.

Rain and renewal, the dark days are done
Redemption, salvation, Rise with the Son!
