Andrew Peterson - God Rested lyrics
[Andrew Peterson - God Rested lyrics]
The man who said He was
The resurrection and the life
Was lifeless on the ground now
The sky was red as blood
Along the blade of night
As the Sabbath fell they
Shrouded Him in linen
They dressed Him like a wound
The rich man and the women
They laid Him in the tomb
Six days shall you labor
The seventh is the Lord's
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens
But He rested on the seventh god rested
He said that it was finished
And the seventh day, He blessed it
God rested
So they laid their hopes away
They buried all their dreams
About the Kingdom He proclaimed
And they sealed them in the grave
As a holy silence fell on all Jerusalem
But the Pharisees were restless
Pilate had no peace
And Peter's heart was reckless
Mary couldn't sleep but God rested
Six days shall you labor
The seventh is the Lord's
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens
But He rested on the seventh god rested
He worked 'till it was finished
And the seventh day, He blessed it
He said that it was good
And the seventh day, He blessed it
God rested
The sun went down, the Sabbath faded
The holy day was done and all Creation waited
