Intro C 
 
verse 1 
C 
And so the winter dies with a blast of icy wind 
       Dm                 F 
Like a mournful cry, it's giving up the ghost again 
C 
Another sheet of snow melts away to gold and green 
                      Am                 F 
Look at Peter go, he's racing to the tomb to see 
 
Am           Em    F 
Where has my Jesus gone? 
Am        C           F 
He is not dead, He is risen 
        C 
Risen indeed 
 
verse 2 
C 
And now the flowers bloom like a song of freedom 
                    F 
Behold the earth is new, if only for the season 
C 
And so the seed that died for You becomes a seedling 
              F                                             Am 
Just put your hand into the wound that bought your healing 
 
                 Em    F 
And let your heart believe 
Am        C           F 
He is not dead, He is risen 
      Em 
Risen indeed 
 
Interlude 
Am F 
 
Bridge 
G 
And the rain will fall on the furrow 
                      C  F 
It immerses the earth in sorrow 
                   F          G 
Mary, the sun will rise again 
          Em       G 
Mary, the sun will rise again 
          Em      F       G 
Daughter, listen, listen 
         C                 F       G 
Daughter listen, He speaks your name 
 
verse 3 
C                                Em 
And Father Abraham could not have dreamed of this 
Am                                                C 
Could never understand the end of all those promises 
                                       Em       F 
How all the pieces fit, every star and grain of sand 
F 
Is safely hid in Jesus' hand 
 
Am        Em     F 
Let every tongue confess 
Am        Em          F 
He is not dead, He is risen, risen 
Am        Em          F 
He is not dead, He is risen 
         C 
Risen indeed 
 
Interlude 
Am   F  
 
Outro 
C 
Oh Mary, the sun will rise again 
                   F 
Mary, the sun will rise again 
F 
Daughter, listen, listen 
F 
Daughter listen, He speaks your name
