Sunday Morning
Resurrected Hope: A Sunday Morning Mourning
Lyrics
We're gonna go and see our friend
We plan to visit our friend.
Buried in the grave
Our friend is deceased and buried.
We're gonna go and mourn His end
We will mourn the end of our friend.
On this day the Lord has made
This day is significant in the context of the Lord.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Expressing emotions or emphasis, possibly sorrow or reflection.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
-We're gonna weep, mourn and wail for Him
We will express deep sorrow and lament for Him.
'Cause He was taken far too soon
He was taken away prematurely, causing grief.
We're gonna see His body
We will view His body.
And cover it in sweet perfume
We will adorn His body with sweet perfume.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Continued expression of emotions or emphasis.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
-And now the sun comes creeping up
The sun rises, symbolizing a new day, possibly contrasting with the mourning.
Like an insult to the pain
The sunrise may feel like an insult or contrast to the pain.
Why should the birds begin their songs
Questioning why birds sing when the Lord is in the grave, suggesting a somber mood.
While their Lord is in the grave
Expressing the incongruity of joyous bird songs in the face of the Lord's burial.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Continued expression of emotions or emphasis.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
-It was early on Sunday morning
Describing the specific time, early on Sunday morning.
Just an ordinary day
Emphasizing the ordinary nature of the day.
When our eyes beheld the sight
The sight of an open, empty grave is observed.
Of an open, empty grave
Suggesting a significant event related to the grave.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Continued expression of emotions or emphasis.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
