Risen From all across the horizon Came the break of day; With the slowly rising sun, The night just slipped away. Not everywhere was seen the light, Nor felt the brand new dawn; In the heart of many t’was still night, And the darkness seemed to live on and on. Torn apart by grief and sorrow, Worn down by anguish and pain; With no hope left of tomorrow, The tried to hold back tears..in vain, Never could they begin to see, That all this had been willed; That with a falling curse of many a century, The prophecies of ages were fulfilled. Very soon after the sun rise, To a broken hearted Mary first He came; But she did not see him with closed eyes, Until gently, softly our Lord spoke her name.
All at once the sorrow of ages tumbled, Gone was the fear of night,
The gates of hell crumbled, The earth was flooded by light. A new era had been born, As man was set free; Onward from that fateful morn; Heaven’s doors are open to you and me. The curse of death had been smashed, Cause the Lamb of God was given; Hell’s every hope dashed, The SON OF GOD has risen. |
