the angel up on the tombstone

weather-wise we’ve a fitting easter – the day starting out a little sad, a little gray, a stillness. and then the bursting forth of blue and sun, sparking sudden. something joyous.

some keith:

hear the bells ringing
they’re singing that you can be born again
hear the bells ringing
they’re singing Christ is risen from the dead

the angel up on the tombstone
said he has risen, just as he said
quickly now, go tell his disciples
that Jesus Christ is no longer dead

joy to the word, he has risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah

hear the bells ringing
they’re singing that you can be healed right now
hear the bells ringing, they’re singing
Christ, he will reveal it now

the angels, they all surround us
and they are ministering Jesus’ power
quickly now, reach out and receive it
for this could be your glorious hour

joy to the world, he has risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah, hallelujah

the angel up on the tombstone
said he has risen, just as he said
quickly now, go tell his disciples
that Jesus Christ is no longer dead

joy to the world, he has risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah
he’s risen, hallelujah
hallelujah
