My world is still in darkness
On the first day of the week
The decay of heart has started
The smell of death in me
The stone has rolled away
But there is nothing here to see
Tell me where you laid him
The body of my Lord
Tell me where you laid the one
Who loved me at my worst
I need to lay to rest
This hope that seemed so sure
What was that?
When you said my name
I knew it was you
Even though you don't
Look like you used to
In the garden of my heart
You say that single word
And I know we're both alive
My feet they took to running
I don't think I touched the ground
Field and trees were laughing
Sparrows singing out
A brand new hallelujah
A different kind of song
Creation now exhaled out the breath
It held in since the fall
He told me not to touch him
He told me not to cling
He said it would be better
Much better than we had dreamed
He has to fly away
So he can give us something more
We will be the body I was looking for
I've seen... I seen... I see
When he said my name
I knew it was true
Even though he don't
Look like he used to
In the garden of my heart
He says a single word
And I know we're both...
Alive, alive
You are resurrection
You are the life
You are the assurance
That we'll never die
And never be alone
And never be without
And never go through anything
You can't craft into a crown
Our scars your glory
Your scars our light
That illuminate the days
When the sun won't rise
We'll raise a cup of worship
To the ever-living King
Who died, who rose, who raises up
We sing
