I
MARY CAME INTO THE TOMB OF JESUS.
THE STONE WAS MOVED AND HE HAD GONE AWAY.
THE ANGEL SAID FEAR NOT I KNOW WHOM SEEK YE.
FOR HE HAS RISEN, THIS I HEARD HIM SAY.
II
MY FRIEND IF YOU DON'T KNOW MY RISEN SAVIOR.
I BEG OF YOU DON'T WAIT TILL IT'S TOO LATE.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE BRIDE HAS BEEN COMPLETED
DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU HERE HIM SAY IT'S TOO LATE.
1ST CHORUS
GONE THE STONE IS ROLLED BACK.
GONE THE TOMB IS EMPTY.
GONE TO SIT AT THE FATHER'S SIDE.
GONE OVER DEATH TRIUMPHANT.
GONE SIN IS DEFEATED.
GONE AND HE LIVES FOREVER MORE.
2ND CHORUS
GONE THE CHURCH IS EMPTY.
GONE THE BRIDE IS RAPTURED.
GONE TO SIT AT JESUS' SIDE.
GONE OVER DEATH TRIUMPHANT.
GONE SIN IS DEFEATED.
GONE AND HE LIVES FOREVER MORE.
