Risen Indeed

And so the winter dies with
A blast of icy wind like a mournful cry
It's giving up the ghost again
Another sheet of snow melts away
To gold and green look at Peter go
He's racing to the tomb to see

Where has my Jesus gone?
He is not dead, He is risen risen indeed

And now the flowers bloom like
A song of freedom behold the earth is new
If only for the season
And so the seed that died
For you becomes a seedling
Just put your hand into the
Wound that bought your healing

And let your heart believe
He is not dead, He is risen risen indeed

And the rain will fall on the furrow
It immerses the earth in sorrow
Mary, the sun will rise again
Mary, the sun will rise again
Daughter, listen, listen
Daughter listen, He speaks your name

And Father Abraham could not
Have dreamed of this
Could never understand the end
Of all those promises
How all the pieces fit
Every star and grain of sand
Is safely hid in Jesus' hand

Let every tongue confess
He is not dead, He is risen, risen
He is not dead, He is risen risen indeed

Oh Mary, the sun will rise again
Mary, the sun will rise again
Daughter, listen, listen
Daughter listen, He speaks your name
