Verse:
Early Sunday morning,
as the new day was dawning,
came Mary Magdalene
and the other Mary to the tomb.
Behold, there was a great earthquake.
Behold, there was a great earthquake.
For an angel descended from heaven,
an angel descended from heaven,
an angel descended from heaven,
an angel descended from heaven,
And rolled, rolled,
and rolled back the stone.
Bridge:
His countenance was like lightning,
and His raiment was as white as snow.
His countenance was like lightning,
and His raiment was as white as snow.
His countenance was like lightning,
and His raiment was as white as snow.
And for fear of Him, the keepers did shake,
and became as dead men.
Vamp:
(And the angel answered)
(and said unto the women and said...)
Fear not, fear not, fear not,
for I know that ye seek Jesus,
who was crucified.
He is not here, He is not here, He is not here;
(why are you looking for the living amongst the dead),
He is not here,
for He is risen, as He said.
Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
Ending:
Remember how He said
while He was yet in Galilee,
