You heard about the crucifixion
You heard about the resurrection
This is the second day
The stone is sealed the sky is gray
A Sabbath hush on this somber day
But in the depths a different light
Where shadows dwell and souls take flight
No fiery pit no endless pain
But a waiting place a shadowed domain
For those who yearned for those for sought
A promise whispered a battle fought
He walks among them he's not a ghost
But radiant love a heavenly host
Adam and Eve their faces bright
Noah emerges from the fading night
The demons cower their power undone
By gentle hands a victory won
No clash of steel no vengeful fire
But grace descending lifting ever higher
The captives rise their spirits soar
To meet their King furthermore
From darkness freed to endless days
He leads them home along the way
This silent Saturday a hidden deed
A promise kept a planted seed
That even in death His love prevails
And breaks the chains that bind and veil
The dawn will break the stone is shoved
But first this victory filled with love
No sword He wields no battle cry
But love's own power reaching from on high
The chains are broken the gates unfold
A kingdom freed a story told
The second day
The second day
The world held still a silent breath
He walked through shadows close to death
Not hellfire’s rage nor endless night
But Sheol’s realm awaiting light
Old Abraham eyes a weary plea
Moses and David finally free
Not villains bound but hearts forlorn
Aching for a brighter morn
The demons coward fear took flight
Before the dawn of endless light
No battle cry no clash of steel
Just love that wounds and love that heals
He came a shepherd not a sword
Love's echo in a hollowed ward
The gates unlatched the souls released
In Sheol's sunrise found their peace
In the second day
The second day
The tomb is sealed the world holds still
Three days of dust on Zion's hill
No angel’s song no prophet’s call
Just heavy silence shrouding all
Mary weeps a mother's plight
Her heart a tomb in fading light
Yet whispers rise a fragile seed
Of hope that blooms in time of need
The brothers hide their courage gone
Their dreams are shattered one by one
The promised king a broken form
Lost in the storm beyond the norm
But deep within the hallowed ground
A stirring starts without a sound
The earth awaits the stone will yield
A new dawn rising in the field
Three days of dust a world in grey
But dawn will break come what may
Though shadows cling and doubts may rise
A flicker of hope in Mary's eyes
The second day
The second day
