The Garden Tomb

  I

When Mary saw Jesus in the Garden so soon
she thought he was the keeper who watched o’re the tomb.
But she knew it was Jesus when he turned to say
go tell my desciples I have risen today.

  II

When they stooped over to look in the tomb
two angels were sitting in that little room.
Why seek ye the living among the dead
for Jesus had risen the angels then said.

  III

When Mary  told Peter that Jesus was gone
he ran to the garden and John came along.
But the tomb it was empty what marvelous grace
for there lies the napkin that covered his face.

  chorus

Early one morning at the breaking of dawn
two women went out to the garden alone.
They were going to anoint Jesus with spices that day
but Jesus had risen the stone rolled away.
