Here’s a beautiful song that connects Sunday to Monday.? While it would be a great Easter song, it could be used at any time when you want to encourage people to think about whole-life discipleship and make the connect between Sunday and Monday.
Listen to the song here; read the background hereOn Monday
On Thursday was my Lord betrayed
And treated like a renegade
The judge of all unjustly tried
Then stripped and mocked, led off to die.
Hear the sound of soldiers jeering
On Friday he was crucified
Between two thieves he hung and died
Heaven?s brightest light snuffed out
His heart was speared beyond all doubt
Hear the sound of women weeping
On Saturday did silence fall
God?s goodness seemed beyond recall
Can God be dead? Has evil won?
Has darkness swallowed up the Son?
But wait?
In the east the sun is rising
On Sunday morning dawn awakes
Death unravels, the gravestone breaks
Now more alive than anyone
Jesus beckons us to come
Hear the good news ? he is risen!
On Monday will we follow him
And go to where his light seems dim?
To show his love, to serve and care
Heaven?s hope and beauty share
Hear the Master?s invitation.
