Easter Sunday 2009 B
Gospel of Mark.
To the tune of "Don't Worry, Be Happy"
Take your pew now don’t be late
I’ll give you a reason to celebrate
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
It so dark the start of Holy Week
Palm Sunday to Good Friday is so bleak
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Here’s the Easter story according to Mark
It’s also a little dark
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
After Friday for worry and dread
You couldn’t get disciples out of bed
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Three women got up early that Sunday morn
Expressions on their faces sad and 'lorn
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
They went where Jesus’ body was laid
Last respects needed to be paid
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Just about the break of day
They found the stone it was rolled away
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
With anxiousness they went into the tomb
And found no body in the room
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
There was a young man all dressed in white
He gave the ladies an awful fright
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
“Don’t be scared” the young man cried
He’s not here, the crucified
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Tell the all the rest He’s gone ahead
To
Don’t worry, He’s risen!
So out they went they ran and fled
Terror and amazement in their head
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
For this good news they weren’t prepared
Didn’t speak of it at first; they were scared
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Now-a-day’s we’re still afraid
Disregard new life He’s made
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
He’s won the victory, won the prize
So with him we will die and rise
Don’t worry He’s Risen!
Good Friday noon to Easter Morn
Gives us cause to be reborn
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
After forty days we celebrate
I’m sure that it was worth the wait
Don’t worry, He’s Risen!
Jesus Christ Is Risen
Alleluia, He's Risen
Amen.
