| 660. The Sun Does Arise No mortal soul did grace His heart Life given from a father not present Pain endured for persons unknown Understanding not the reason He was sent The will to live succumbed to dying Sins care not from which they breed Prayer and temptation share the same bed Salvation exchanged for mankind’s greed Both wood and thorns adorned a crown No kingdom lasts forever upon the earth Men rise and fall by sword or life Redemption offered freely upon every birth Blood once red turns black as night Color no longer needed by those who can’t see Choices are sometimes easier when we’re blind A single death secures not our destiny Give praise to Him who came long before Belief not a miracle did move a massive stone Think long about what you’ve been given It is what we don’t do that we surely must atone For the sun does rise on this Easter day Mankind’s future gifted from high above Because he died we do now all live Bless the Lord for His unselfish love |
