Representative Text

1 Haven't you heard that Jesus is risen?
Mary was there at crack of the dawn;
weeping, she found him down in the garden:
laughter is living and grieving is gone.
[Refrain:]
Our hearts are glowing,
our eyes are showing
that Jesus lives.

2 Haven't you heard that Jesus is risen?
Cleopas told us. Evening drew on;
walking and talking, travelling with them
Jesus was present: now grieving is gone. [Refrain]

3 Haven't you heard that Jesus is risen?
Peter was fishing. Out of the dawn
Jesus called, 'Shoot your net to the starboard' -
fishing is thriving and grieving is gone. [Refrain]

4 Haven't you heard that Jesus is risen?
Haven't you heard that Jesus goes on?
Haven't you heard that Jesus is with us?
Laughter is living and grieving is gone. [Refrain]
