His death, to many…
brought grief upon grief
And in their their hearts
There was no sign of relief

Their Jesus was gone
This was oh, so wrong
They’d spread the palms
And sang the song…

But what they could not see
Their salvation was on the way
For when He gave up the ghost
We were all saved that day

Then on that third day he rose with all power and might
Was seen by many, by day and by night
And because of His great sacrifice we all now see
What a marvelous Savior He is to you and to me.
