The First Day
In the early dawn,
first day of the week ...
Rising of the sun
Was a day unlike any other
that has ever been,
or will ever come
It was the third day
since they buried
Jesus of Nazareth
All the faithful women said
someone rolled the stone away,
and took their Lord’s body
But two holy angels told them,
Fear not, fear not:
for the Christ has arisen
Savior of all mankind
has rose from the dead
Morning Star now forever shines
Resurrection
on the third day
Messiah has risen from the grave
Resurrection
on the third day
Jesus Christ has cast our sins away
The first day
is the third day ...
With His shed blood, our sins got paid
The third day
is the first day ...
Eternal life is now just a prayer away
Come see the bright dawn,
first day of forever —
Rising of the Son
