D G Em A
I believe winter pays for summer
D G A
There is no other way
Bm G Em A
There can’t be one without the other

A sacrifice must be made
G F#m Em D
And hope’s reward, a spring day
Bm A G
Oh a lonely, cold, dark winter
Bm Gma7 A
Hope lies dormant, no Presence felt
Bm A G
Good Friday’s stark bare altar
Em A
There in the silence He dwells
Beg for the grace to follow the Master
A gift He longs to give
Embrace your cross and discover
We die to self and live
Victory alone is His
T’was the third hour Sunday morning
In the silence creation stirred
The Holy One rose resplendent
Ever true to His word
We will see the sun rising
After the long, dark night
Long lives spent, suffering and loving
Then welcomed to Heaven’s Light
Nevermore the dark of night
Living in your Holy Light
Nevermore the dark of night
