Rolling My Heart Stone Away
In my early childhood growing up
Easter was about eggs roll down a hill
this seemed to be all its about
then eating choc ones to your fill
But as years go by you do learn
this story is all completely wrong
as you learn the truth of Easter
it has new meaning to make you strong
For its all about God's eternal love
sending Jesus to earth to die
to pay the price for all our sins
assuring us of heaven on high
We've now been given brand new life
for Jesus rose again from the dead
being the first fruits of our resurrection
as His word indeed has clearly said
This is the real meaning of Easter
as my heart stones been rolled away
indeed my redeemer lives within me
for all eternity He will stay
(what Easter means to me)
