lyrics

Early, early in the morn,
who’ll roll away the stone?
Flowers for the grave of God,
who’ll roll away the stone?

Where, oh where have they laid my Lord?
Who rolled away the stone?
You set your seal and set your guard¬—
who rolled away the stone?

Where, oh where have they laid my Lord?
Who rolled away the stone?

Bright, bright angel sittin’ on a stone,
who rolled away the stone?
Face like lightning, clothes like snow,
who rolled away the stone?

Empty, empty, death’s dark womb,
who rolled away the stone?
Shadow moving in the tomb—
Who rolled away the stone?
Shadow moving in the tomb.
Who rolled away the stone?
