时长: 05:28
The gates and doors were barred [00:00:24]
And all the windows fastened down [00:00:27]
I spent the night in sleeplessness [00:00:30]
And rose at every sound [00:00:32]
Half in hopeless sorrow [00:00:34]
And half in fear the day [00:00:37]
Would find the soldiers breaking through [00:00:39]
To drag us all away [00:00:42]
And just before the sunrise [00:00:48]
I heard something at the wall [00:00:50]
The gate began to rattle [00:00:53]
And a voice began to call [00:00:55]
I hurried to the window [00:00:58]
Looked down into the street [00:01:00]
Expecting swords and torches [00:01:03]
And the sound of soldiers feet [00:01:06]
But there was no one there but Mary [00:01:13]
So I went down to let her in [00:01:15]
John stood there beside me [00:01:18]
As she told me where she'd been [00:01:20]
She said they might have moved him in the night [00:01:23]
And none of us knows where [00:01:25]
Oh the stone's been rolled away [00:01:28]
And now his body isn't there [00:01:31]
We both ran toward the garden [00:01:35]
Then John ran on ahead [00:01:38]
And we found the stone and empty tomb [00:01:40]
Just the way that Mary said [00:01:43]
But the winding sheet they wrapped him in [00:01:45]
Was just an empty shell [00:01:48]
And how or where they'd taken him [00:01:51]
Was more than I could tell [00:01:55]
Oh something strange had happened there [00:02:00]
Just what I did not know [00:02:03]
John believed a miracle [00:02:06]
But I just turned to go [00:02:08]
Circumstance and speculation [00:02:10]
Couldn't lift me very high [00:02:13]
Cause I'd seen them crucify him [00:02:15]
Then I saw him die [00:02:20]
Back inside the house again [00:02:26]
The guilt and anguish came [00:02:28]
Everything I'd promised him [00:02:31]
Just added to my shame [00:02:33]
When at last it came to choices [00:02:35]
I denied I knew his name [00:02:37]
So even if he was alive [00:02:42]
It wouldn't be the same [00:02:46]
But suddenly the air was filled [00:02:52]
With a strange and sweet perfume [00:02:54]
Light that came from everywhere [00:02:57]
Drove the shadows from the room [00:02:59]
And Jesus stood before me [00:03:01]
With his arms held open wide [00:03:04]
And I fell down on my knees [00:03:07]
And I just clung to him and cried [00:03:10]
Oh then he raised me to my feet [00:03:16]
And as I looked into his eyes [00:03:19]
The love was shining out from him [00:03:22]
Like sunlight from the skies [00:03:25]
Guilt in my confusion [00:03:27]
Dissappeared in sweet release [00:03:29]
And every fear I'd ever had [00:03:32]
Just melted into peace [00:03:36]
Sweet [00:03:41]
Alive alive he's alive [00:03:43]
Alive alive he's alive [00:03:45]
Alive alive he's alive he's alive [00:03:48]
He's alive yes he's alive [00:03:52]
He's alive and I'm forgiven [00:03:57]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:00]
He's alive yes he's alive [00:04:02]
Oh he's alive and I'm forgiven [00:04:07]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:10]
He's alive yes he's alive [00:04:12]
He's alive and I'm forgiven [00:04:17]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:20]
He's alive [00:04:22]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:25]
He's alive and I'm forgiven [00:04:28]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:30]
Oh he's alive [00:04:32]
He's alive he's alive he's alive and I'm forgiven [00:04:35]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:42]
He's alive he's alive he's alive and I'm forgiven [00:04:45]
Heaven's gates are open wide [00:04:52]
He's alive [00:04:55]
Why na [00:05:14]
A duck [00:05:17]
