Basket of Lilies

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning on the table Eggs in painted grass Little hands are shaking Holding what will last Windows full of sunlight Bread and honey gold You were once a story Now the stone is rolled [Pre-Chorus] Every broken ending Gets a second start Every heavy shadow Loses to the heart [Chorus] Easter, Easter Love is here Easter, Easter Dry your tears The tomb is open The grave is gone Easter, Easter Sing it on [Verse 2] Grandma in the doorway Laughing through the rain Uncle on the porch swing Calling out Your name Kids with jelly fingers Chasing robin blue All the hurt that held us Turns to something new [Pre-Chorus] Every locked-up doorframe Shakes and lets us through Every cold tomorrow Turns its face to You [Chorus] Easter, Easter Love is here Easter, Easter Dry your tears The tomb is open The grave is gone Easter, Easter Sing it on [Bridge] In the dust and the waiting You were working all along In the silence and the breaking You were making us strong Now the fear is fading Now the night is through We were lost and lonely Then You called us new [Chorus] Easter, Easter Love is here Easter, Easter Dry your tears The tomb is open The grave is gone Easter, Easter Sing it on [Outro] Sing it on Sing it on Easter, Easter Love is here
