Wilder Adkins He Is Risen Lyrics

There by the tomb
Dug in the ground
Mary and the others
Had gathered round
But on that day
He could not be found
He is risen, Hallelujah
Hallelu

Oh my sweet love
My faithful bride -
She spoke in hushed whispers
On the day that she died
She said 'soon my dear
I'll be by his side”
Now she is with Him, Hallelujah
Hallelu

Oh heart sink not
Into that mire
Cast off the empty praise
For which we men aspire
Incline your ear
To hear that heavenly choir
Sing He is risen, Hallelujah
Hallelu
