God Rested |
So they took His body down |
The man who said He was the resurrection and the life |
Was lifeless on the ground now |
The sky was red His blood along the blade of night |
And as the Sabbath fell they shrouded Him in linen |
They dressed Him like a wound |
The rich man and the women |
They laid Him in the tomb |
Six days shall You labor, the seventh is the Lord’s |
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens |
But He rested on the the seventh |
God rested |
He said that it was finished |
And the seventh day, He blessed it |
God rested |
So they laid their hopes away |
They buried all their dreams |
About the Kingdom He proclaimed |
And they sealed them in the grave |
As a holy silence fell on all Jerusalem |
And the Pharisees were restless |
Pilate had no peace |
Peter’s heart was reckless |
Mary couldn’t sleep |
But God rested |
Six days shall you labor, the seventh is the Lord’s |
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens |
But He rested on the the seventh |
God rested |
He worked till it was finished and the seventh day He blessed it |
He said that it was good |
And the seventh day, He blessed it |
God rested |
The sun went down, the Sabbath faded |
The holy day was done and all Creation waited |
