"And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead.... And they departed quickly from the sepulcher with fear and great joy, and did run to bring His disciples word" (Matthew 28:5-8).
Meditate upon that day
When Christ rose, just as He said.
Come and hear the angel say:
"He is risen from the dead."
Feet are racing with the word.
Hearts are pounding, full of glory!
Ears rejoice in what they've heard.
Tongues recount the wondrous story.
Have we lost that sense of thrill
Of that resurrection morn?
Are we jaded by the chill
Of the unbeliever's scorn?
Come again and see the proof!
Peer into His empty grave!
Let the world stand aloof,
Yet our Savior lives to save!
Now quickly go and tell the news
To everyone with ears to hear!
By every means that we may use,
Let us run and make it clear!
