Long ago in the town of Jerusalem
Was an angry mob was it us or them
Took our King and they said that Jesus must die
I can still hear them screaming "crucify"
And He suffered death and shame
But He told us believe Him that this was the reason He came
Thank you Jesus thank you Lord for Resurrection Day
Can't imagine the suffering and
pain that He felt
Took the whips and the worst that the soldiers all dealt
Let them hit Him and hurt Him and beat Him and then
Let them hurt Him and hit Him and beat Him again
And He never said a word
I suppose had He tried that His words would have never been heard
Thank you Jesus thank you Lord for
Resurrection Day
Well He died for you and He died
for me
I'm amazed so many people will not see
Because He rose we are reborn
Give praise to God for that first Easter morn
And every year when I hear the
Passion of Christ
Makes me sad to hear how my Saviour did die
How they mocked Him and nailed Him to hang on a tree
Now the cross is the way to salvation for me
In the glory to God on high
I give thanks that He sent His begotten son Jesus to die
Thank you Jesus thank you Lord for
Resurrection Day
In the glory to God on high
I give thanks that He sent His begotten son Jesus to die
Thank you Jesus thank you Lord for
Resurrection Day
Resurrection Day
