"From The 3rd Day On"

To end my radio show at www.worldwidebluegrass.com on Saturday mornings I am now playing a song written by Mark "Brink" Brinkman entitled "From The 3rd Day On" and performed by a new bluegrass gospel band called Wheeler with Tiffany Wheeler doing a beautiful job on the lead vocals. The words are below.


The sky was black as midnight in the middle of that day
They laid our Lord and Savior in the grave,
On that first day they walked away and thought all hope was gone
What would life be like from that day on?

On the second day abandoned, lost, and all alone
They wandered like a child without a home,
But thanks to God our Father the stone was rolled away
He gave us life beyond that second day.


(Chorus)
From the third day on Christ is risen
From the third day on hope is alive,
From the third day on we are forgiven
Make sure you're living from the third day on.


Are you living your life in that first or second day
Are you holding on to things that fade away?
Just put your faith in Jesus, He's God's eternal Son
And live your life from the third day on.

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
The first day brought us darkness, the second doubt and strife,
The third day brought the good news of the risen Christ.

(Repeat Chorus)
