On that first Easter morning
as the sun began to rise
Mary went to find Him
But she found to her surprise
The tomb where
they had laid Him
was just an empty grave
For the power that was in Him
brought him up from the grave
Over the horizon
Look friends can't you see
Is that the Son of God
Oh He's coming back for me
The cry is getting louder
Even so Lord Jesus come
I can't help but get excited
It's the Rising of the Son
Many of our loved ones
who've left a vacant place
Well they'll be there
to greet us
on that Resurrection Day
Well there'll be a change
sweep o'er me
And I'll be called away
But He's a coming
in the morning
Then we're at the break of day
Over the horizon
Look friends can't you see
Is that the Son of God
Oh He's coming back for me
The cry is getting louder
Even so Lord Jesus come
I can't help but get excited
It's the Rising of the Son
Over the horizon
Look friends can't you see
Is that the Son of God
Oh He's coming back for me
The cry is getting louder
Even so Lord Jesus come
I can't help but get excited
It's the Rising of the Son
