For the Songless Hearts - Jon Guerra

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…
