Easter

G#m9           E7+           G#m9
Three days in darkness far below
                F#6    A9(#11)  G#m9
Death hearkens from an age ago
             E7+            G#m9  
The ancient promise that we waited
         F#6
 for so long
     A9(#11)
Has gone away

C#m9         A   C#m9            
All hope is lost, left upon that 
  A
cross
C#m9            B
A bloodstained robe
            A                   C#m9
It seems redemption's dream has died

C#m
Visions and the prophecies all 
washed away in vain
C#m                          A
Groanings of creation as it cries 
out in pain
C#m
Sacrosanct the stories of what is 
and what will be
C#m                             
All foretold this was supposed to 
   A
end so differently

C#         A#º     A
All nature mourns in unison
C#         A#º     A
Creation forms its requiem
A                        C#m
Branded with the mark of sin and 
shame
                    B
A life laid down, a cursed name
  C#m
A crown forsaken, burden, blame
               B
Another cycle just the same
    A
Is this the end of promise
B           G#m9
Dying all alone?
        A                G#m
Easter morning's Son will rise
         A
Radiance warming tearstained eyes
D#m        E                   
The son of man shall be raised 
D#m             E
up on the third day
           F#
The grave denied

( G#m  G#m  G#m  E  F# )
( G#m  G#m  G#m  E  F# )

G#m
Run and see the stone has rolled 
away behold the way
G#m
They're trembling in terror at the 
grave

(Is this an empty promise, that 
we've been waiting for?
Because I'm so afraid to get my 
hopes up anymore
Is this a cruel illusion? Or could 
it really be
The miracle of miracles unfolding 
right in front or me?)

E
Blinding angel, white as lightning
                     F#
Violent earthquakes, do not fear

Why seek the living among the dead?
  E               F#
Behold, he is not here

C#4  C#  C#4  C#          G#
Glory!  Glory! Hope is alive
    A°     A#m             F#
And lifted up, before your eyes
       G#      C#                 
Waking all the world, open gates 
  B
to paradise
         G#m            G#m/F#
Now it's done, life has come
          D#7/9/G
Death has died
F#     G#             F#        
Easter glory, what an ending to 
    C#  G#
the story
F#  G#    C#
My son, arise!

C#m         A
Early misty morning
B               C#m
Just before the dawn
   A             G#m         C#m
An empty tomb, a broken body gone
C#m                     A
Thieves have done their bidding
B                   C#m
Before the light of day
         A             G#        
They've stolen Him and taken Him

away

The kingdom of deliverance is gone
C#m           A              B  
Faded like a candle snuffed out

to kill the light

The morning runs away into the night
