[Verse 1]
Slowly the light unfolding
Softly the dawn approaching
Anxious frightened souls
Seeking hope, seeking hope

[Verse 2]
Stumbling through sad desolation
Wondering with frightened confusion
Towards a dark gaping tomb
A buried hope

[Verse 3]
Gently, an awareness of a loving presence
His words, do not be afraid
His message, peace be with you
Rabbi, remember, it is the Lord

[Verse 4]
At the tempest and the storm
In the kindnesses that keep us warm
Even through the pains and betrayals
Of life's crucifixion

[Chorus]
Rejoice, dear souls
For peace, it is the Lord
Soothe, it is the Lord
It is the Lord, now and forever
[Outro]
Amen
