An Easter Song: An Empty Cross An Empty Tomb
Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2026 2:31 pm
I searched all over to find the lyrics to this song for Sunday, but had to resort to transcribing them myself from the video found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C62gGpMt-Ys by the Carolina Crossmen.
Dianne Wilkinson wrote it, and I love love love it, and will do my best to do it justice. For anyone else looking for a bomber Easter song, here are the lyrics: (sorry for any typos--I was in a hurry! LOL)
An Empty Cross An Empty Tomb
One day God would send His Son
To right the wrong that sin had done
On a hill where they would nail Him to a cross
He lived and bled and died that day
God would turn his Face away
And the angels sang as Jesus paid it all
In 3 days the garden tomb
Would prove to be a barren room
Where the graveclothes were all that they could see
Just as He had prophesied
Jesus rose to brand new life
Death was defeated and forever there would be
An empty cross, an empty tomb
Millions come and still there’s room
For all who gather there to see that He is risen
Jesus Christ is glorified
Seated at his Father’s side
Yet His Blood still flows for those who seek forgiveness
In a world where many doubt God’s Word is true
We can take them to an empty cross, an empty tomb
Tag: In a world where many doubt God’s Word is true
We can take them to an empty cross, an empty tomb
An empty tomb
