Guy Penrod House
Guy Penrod Then Came The Morning
They’d just lost their dearest friend
All that He said, now He was dead
So this was the way it would end
Now that He was dead and gone
The garden, the jail, the hammer, the nail
How could a night be so long?
Night turned into day
The stone was rolled away
Hope rose with the dawn
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come
The wedding, the water, the wine
Now it was done, they’d taken her Son
Wasted before His time
She’d heard them call Him just a man
But deep in her heart, she knew from the start
Somehow her Son would live again
Night turned into a day
The stone was rolled away
Hope rose with the dawn
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come
Shadows vanished before the sun
Death had lost and life had won
For morning had come
For morning had come
