Roll Away the Stone
The day has come when all will see
that Jesus Christ of Galilee
was truly sent from God above
to show mankind His greatest love.
By Peter three times was denied
then sentenced to be crucified.
They nailed him there upon the cross
and thus became our greatest loss.
Crying out to God our Savior died.
Before his tomb,the Marys cried.
In front of the place Jesus was laid
an angel said"Don't be afraid.
For Jesus has gone from this place
and soon you'll look upon his face".
And so the good news quickly spread
that Jesus was risen from the dead.
The Savior died to bear our sin
and cleanse us of it from within.
God gave to us His only son
and now our new life has begun.
So when you don your Easter bonnet
stop a moment and ponder upon it
that Jesus is the real reason
we celebrate this holy season.
