this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
the temple curtain
torn in two
from top to bottom,
because of you
a severe earthquake
split rock
and many graves opened
releasing saints
they now talk
this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
it wasn’t calm,
it was complete and utter darkness
in the middle of the day
which signified divine judgment
and marked the moment
of Jesus’ sacrifice
should I say this twice?
it wasn’t calm,
it was complete and utter darkness
in the middle of the day
which signified divine judgment
and marked the moment
of Jesus’ sacrifice
it wasn’t silent
yet, it was so Holy
into a tomb
they placed the body
that He created for Himself
just a shell of flesh
but the sacrifice…
This Holy man so meek
was honored with heavenly peace
was encompassed by heavenly peace
this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
The Roman Guards quake at the sight
Glories stream down from heaven
Heavenly hosts declare
He is not here;
he has risen,
just as he said
Christ the Savior is alive
Christ the Savior is alive
this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
Son of God, love’s pure light
you are seated by your Father
forever honored at his right
Radiant beams radiate from your holy face
this act of love is the definition of your grace
we are honored to share in your light
we are blessed to be given your light
this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
this wasn’t silent
yet, oh, so Holy
