He Rose on the Third Day
(Easter Resurrection Song)
He rose on the third day, the stone rolled away,
The darkness was shattered by dawn’s golden ray.
The grave could not hold Him, the veil torn in two,
The promise of heaven made faithful and true.
He walked out in glory, His hands marked with grace,
The wounds that redeemed us, love’s radiant trace.
The angels rejoiced, and the earth felt the light,
The Savior victorious, ending the night.
So sing hallelujah, let all voices ring,
For death has been conquered by our risen King.
New life now is blooming where sorrow once lay--
He rose, yes, He rose on that glorious day.
