Verse
Was it any wonder that the skies began to thunder
When the soldiers nailed Him to the tree?
Not the forces of nature nor the Roman legislature
Couldkeep our Master in captivity!
Did the sun shine brighter on that Hallelujah morning?
Did our burdens seem lighter by the way?
Do the trees seem greener?
Does the earth smell sweeter?
Since we learned that Jesus rose that glorious day.
Chorus
When they looked up in the skies
They could not believe their eyes
As the crowd here witnessed God's Son rise!
He was going home to regain His throne
To His Home in Paradise!
(On that Glory Hallelujah Day)
Yes on that special morning without any warning
He stole away, so the Scriptures say
Well, He took His place in hist'ry
And it will be no myst'ry
On that Glory Hallelujah Day!
Verse
Ev'ry hope it raises, ev'ry time we sing His praises,
We're reminded of salvation's wondrous plan.
Each and ev'ry sinner has a way that lets them enter
Through the gates of Heaven for eternal days!
Jesus came to save us that's the promise that He gave us
Just before He died upon the Calv'ry cross.
Tho' we can't conceive it, He just asked us to believe it.
This Carpenter who suffered such a loss.
Chorus
When they looked up in the skies
They could not believe their eyes

To His Home in Paradise!
(On that Glory Hallelujah Day)
Yes on that special morning without any warning
He stole away, so the Scriptures say
Well, He took His place in hist'ry
And it will be no myst'ry
On that Glory Hallelujah Day!
When they looked up in the skies
They could not believe their eyes
As the crowd here witnessed God's Son rise!
He was going home to regain His throne
To His Home in Paradise!

When they looked up in the skies
They could not believe their eyes
As the crowd here witnessed God's Son rise!
He was going home to regain His throne
To HisHhome in Paradise!
