The Way Is Open: lyrics | mp3 | sheet music Beautiful Mystery: lyrics | mp3 | sheet music From the CD and download: Out Of The Ordinary No nights aglow with candle flame for the King of love No flags of empire hung in shame for Calvary No flowers perfumed the lonely way that led him to A borrowed tomb for Easter Day No wreaths upon the ground were laid for the King of kings Only a crown of thorns remained where he gave his love A message scrawled in irony 'King of the Jews' Lay trampled where they turned away and no-one knew That it was the first Easter Day Yet nature's finest colours blaze for the King of kings And stars in jewelled clusters say: 'Worship heaven's King' Two thousand spring times more have bloomed Is that enough? Oh how can I be satisfied until he hears The whole world sing of Easter love My prayers shall be a fragrance sweet for the King of kings My love the flowers at his feet for the King of love My vigil is to watch and pray until he comes My highest tribute to obey and live to know The power of that first Easter Day I long for scenes of majesty for the risen King Or nights aglow with candle flame for the King of love A nation hushed upon it's knees at Calvary Where all our sins and griefs were nailed And hope was born of everlasting Easter Day Graham Kendrick
