Christ Has Risen ~ Ginny Bryant ~ Living Each Day

Christ has risen hear our song
Of glorious Easter gladness
With the bright triumphant throng
Will cast away all sadness.

Springtime flowers tell us how
We must leave the sighing
As we pass the sorrow now
Of our earthly Father dying.

Mary kneeling in the gloom
Weeping, bowed with sorrow
As they gathered at the Tomb
Know not what holds tomorrow.

Seeking in the Lord they found
Now there is no more sadness
So much woe and grief abound
Yet He brought them gladness.

So Sad in all our sorrow here
Our grief was deeply pining
Through the doubt and darkest fear
Easter sun was shining.

As we think of our Lord above
We feel His glorious affection
Know the power of Jesus love
By His Resurrection.
