Morning For the Mourning.

This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. 
-2 Timothy 1:10

Morning for the mourning, 
Is a heavy fog of blue,
That shrouds the light,
And corrupts the sight,
Diminishing our whole view.

Mourning in the morning, 
Is a heaviness like lead,
That suffocates, 
Locking into place,
Drawing us back into bed.

For those of us downcast,
Look up, arise and know,
There is meaning yet,
God did not forget,
Through trials true faith can grow.

There's hope in the morning.
That replenishes our soul.
Christ knows our pain;
His death, not in vain.
Through mourning we are made whole.

Christ rose up in the morning,
This was God's plan all along,
Conquered the grave
For our souls to save,
His victory, Heaven's song.
