The Night Before Easter

The night was so different from all the rest
And the silence covers the Earth
The stars have no glimmer, the moon tries to hide
For in death lies the man of their birth

In a room filled with sorrow, a mother cries
For Jesus, her Son now is gone
Her child sent from heaven was taken away
Heartbroken, she feels all alone

At the feet of his mother, a little boy cries
Sayin', "Momma, I don't understand"
I remember the look of love in His eyes
That I saw when he touched my hand

The king of all ages, the giver of life
For a moment, lies silent and still
Mm, but powers sent from the heaven comes breakin' the night
And death must bow to His will (to His will)

Then a stone moves, the Earth shakes and birds start singin'
The sun shines, the Earth warms for new life is springin'
And the little boy stops cryin', a mother is smilin'
For death could not hold their King

Then a stone moves (a stone moves)
The Earth shakes (the Earth shakes) and birds start singin'
The sun shines (the sun shines)
The Earth warms (the Earth warms) for new life is springin'
And the little boy stops cryin', the mother is smilin'
For death could not hold their King (death could not hold Him)

For death could not hold their King (death could not hold their King)
