Happy Easter!

Was It A Morning Like This

By Sandi Patty

Was it a morning like this 

When the Son still hid from Jerusalem? 

And Mary rose from her bed 

To tend the Lord She thought was dead 

What is a morning like this, 

When Mary walked down from Jerusalem?  

And two angels stood at the tomb, 

Bearers of news she would hear soon.  

Did the grass sing? 

Did the earth rejoice To feel you again? 

Over and over like a  Trumpet underground, 

Did the earth seem to pound: 

“He is risen”  

over and over in a never ending round 

“He is risen, alleluia, alleluia!”  

Was it an morning like this, 

When Peter and John from Jerusalem? 

And as they raced for the tomb, 

Beneath their feet was there a tune?  

Was it a morning like this, 

When my Lord looked out  On Jerusalem? 

He is risen, alleluia, alleluia.
