For the Songless Hearts

Awake, glad soul awake
The sun has risen long
Go now to His grave
And bring a tuneful heart… and song
When He was laid in the tomb
He laid right next to you
No one could hear your hopeless sorrow
But there He could hear you
When He was sad and wept alone
Child, He wept for you
When you were dead in a song-less slumber
He sang a-a-and died for you
Awake, glad soul awake
Your shoes are all worn low
Far enough, you cannot say!
Just past those clouds He comes for you You know?!
When He was laid in the tomb
He laid right next to you
No one could hear your hopeless sorrow
But there He could hear you
When He was sad and wept alone
Child, He wept for you
When you were dead in a song-less slumber
He sang a-a-and died for you
For you, o-o-oh
For you!..
Awake, glad soul awake
The Lord has risen long
He comes now to your grave
And He brings a tuneful heart and song
And so-o-ong
Song…
