"My beloved" Christ calls from the grave "My beloved, arise For the winter is past The cold of the night is gone See the flowers grow in the land For death has passed and I have brought life."
For our Lord came as one of us He came and lived for us And then He went to the cross He died for us But behold, He is risen! The grave once dark and filled with death Now is bursting with joy and life And the dark of the grave is gone Now there is a light brighter than the sun
And Christ, our Lord calls to us from the grave "See, my beloved, I have risen I am here and have made all things new The light from my empty grave shines And it casts light into the darkness of this day I stand here risen for you I will call your name And I will call you my beloved For all things have passed away And they have been made new You will be my beloved And I will be your God”
