Peter and John and the others were gathered
The loss of their friend was a fact
Eleven disciples were shocked and depressed
And didn't know how to react
Then Mary came running with eager steps
And knocked on the door that was locked
She came with the greatest news of all times
And their hope arose as she talked
He's not in the grave
He's not where he lay
His clothes are there, but he isn't
He's not in the grave
He's taken away
Jesus is truly risen
The message from Mary was hard to believe
And Thomas thought this was too much
I won't believe until I have seen
Until I've been able to touch
The marks in his hands and the wound in his side
I need to see him with my eyes
I wonder how you and I will respond
When Jesus comes back by surprise
He's not in the grave
He's not where he lay
His clothes are there, but he isn't
He's not in the grave
He's taken away
Jesus is truly risen
He's risen, He's risen
He's risen, He's risen
He's not in the grave
He's not where he lay
His clothes are there, but he isn't
He's not in the grave
He's taken away
Jesus is truly risen
Jesus is truly risen
Jesus is truly risen
Jesus is truly risen
Jesus is truly risen
