He Rolled Away The Stone
words and music

Verse:
Because he was the Son of God,
He rolled away the stone.
Because he was the Son of God,
He rolled away the stone.
He rolled away the stone,
So we’d never be alone.
He walked 200 miles,
That’s where his seeds were sewn.
He walked 200 miles,
That’s where his seeds were sewn.
He rolled away the stone,
So we’d never be alone.
Chorus:
Always spoke His mind.
Made the rabbis wary.
Not a pacifist,
He was a revolutionary.
He was crucified,
Now he sits upon the throne.
He rolled away the stone,
So we’d never be alone.
Verse:
He had friends and disciples,
But he never had a home.
He had friends and disciples,
But he never had a home.
He rolled away the stone,
So we’d never be alone.
(12 Bar instrumental solo instead of second half of verse)
(Chorus)
Always spoke His mind.
Made the rabbis wary.
Not a pacifist,
He was a revolutionary.
He was crucified,
Now he sits upon the throne.
He rolled away the stone,
So we’d never be alone.
(Verse)
When the rapture comes,
Don’t you want to hear the tone.
When the rapture comes,
Don’t you want to hear the tone.
You’ve got to roll away the stone,
So you’ll never be,
Roll away the stone,
So you’ll never be,
Roll away the stone,
So you’ll never be alone.
