Words and Music by Don Francisco



The gates and doors were barred

And all
the windows fastened down;

I spent the
night in sleeplessness

And rose at every
sound

Half in hopeless sorrow

And
half in fear the day

Would find the
soldiers

Breakin' thru to drag us all
away



And just before the sunrise

I heard something at the wall

The gate
began to rattle

And a voice began to
call;

I hurried to the window

And
looked down into the street

Expecting
swords and torches

And the sounds of
soldier's feet



There was no one
there but Mary

So I went down to let her
in;

John stood there beside me

As
she'd told us where she'd been.

She said,
They moved Him in the night

And none of us
knows where;

The stone's been rolled
away

And now His body isn't there!



We both ran t'ward the garden,

Then John ran on ahead;

We found the
stone and empty tomb

Just the way that Mary
said.

But the winding sheet

They
wrapped Him in

Was just an empty shell;

And who or where they'd taken Him

Was
more than I could tell.



Well,
something strange

Had happened there,

But just what I didn't know;

John
believed a miracle

But I just turned to
go.

Circumstance and speculation

Couldn't lift me very high

'Cause I'd
seen them crucify Him,

Then I saw Him
die.



Back inside the house again

The guilt and anguish came;

Everything
I'd promised Him

Just added to my shame.

When at last it came to choices,

I denied
I knew His name;

And even if He was
alive,

It wouldn't be the same



But suddenly the air was filled

With a
strange and sweet perfume;

Light
