Analysis of Easter Morn



Just a closer walk with thee
Oh, Jesus, Lord, I  pray
To take my hand, and leadeth me
To feel Thy love this day.

That Easter morn' the tomb was found
in state of emptiness
the Son of God was not there found
He rose, our lives to bless.

He gave his life upon the cross
strung up for all to see
He rose again that we might gain
life for eternity.

This Easter morn' may we think on
His gift to one and all
Redemption of the world from sin
was His holy call.
