EMPTY TOMB
by Mary Sweet © 2016THERE IS AN EMPTY TOMB
WHERE MY SAVIOR DID LAY
HE'S NO LONGER THERE
OH, GLORIOUS DAY
THE CROSS, THEN THE TOMB
FOR THREE DAYS WAS HE
HE ENDURED IT ALL
FOR YOU AND FOR ME...
HE PAID FOR OUR SIN
AS HE HAD NONE
JESUS, OUR SAVIOR
GOD'S ONLY SON...
THIS GIFT HE GAVE
TO ALL WHO WOULD SEE
THEIR NEED OF FORGIVENESS
FOR ALL ETERNITY...
HE IS NOT HERE: FOR HE IS RISEN, AS HE SAID. COME,
SEE THE PLACE WHERE THE LORD LAY. MATTHEW 28:6
THIS POEM CAME TO ME DURING MY QUIET TIME PRIOR TO GOING TO EASTER SERVICES
