The birthing place of peace and grace
Where heaven made us room
Was where the Christ rose back to life
Inside the open tomb
A life brand new came into view
And much to our surprise
The Lord would mend what was our end
Before our open eyes
Truth once concealed has been revealed
As in God's Word one finds
The Spirit guides in steps and strides
All those with open minds
We marvel not that what we've got
The north, west, east and south
Should also hear from witness near
We're Gospel's open mouth
