My name is Matthew
You might have seen me
Preaching and singing on these dusty streets
Just one of many who were following Jesus
We were all witness to miraculous feats
Maybe you just heard last week they took Him
On Friday my Lord was hung on a cross
It’s been three days now and I feel so empty
It’s Sunday morning and I feel so lost
My name is Mary
My heart is heavy
I’ve cried so much, I can’t cry anymore
How could this happen? He was so gentle
I’ve never met a man like Him before
How I adored Him how I believed Him
Such a sweet peace when He walked in the room
I washed his feet, oh but lately I can’t sleep
It’s Sunday morning, think I’ll visit His tomb
My name is Peter
Maybe they told you
I had denied Him I’m sorry it’s true
He knew my weakness still He forgave me
I stood up to the soldiers, there were only a few
But I felt His hand come to rest on my shoulder
He lowered my sword
“Is this what I’ve taught?”
That’s when they took Him; later they beat Him
It’s Sunday morning; I wish now I’d fought
I am a Soldier
I am a Roman
I saw the wound in His side, cut so deep
I have been stationed all night at His graveside
But it’s Sunday morning, and I fell asleep
There in the darkness the earth shook and trembled
The tomb was found empty the stone rolled away
Mary left weeping on the path was a stranger
In the first light of Sunday, she asked Him His name;
She asked Him His name:
“My name is Jesus!”
He said “My name is Jesus and I have returned,
from the grave in fulfillment of my Father’s plan
My blood has atoned, death has now been defeated
And I have returned with the keys in My hand
I am the Son of God
I’m the Redeemer
I’m the Great Shepherd and I am the Lamb
I was the Crucified, sacrificed Friday night
But it’s Sunday morning and I am alive!
My name is Jesus Jesus! (Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!)
Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!
My name is Jesus Jesus! (Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!)
Tell all the world he’s alive, he’s alive!
My name is Jesus! (Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!)
Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!
My name is Jesus! (Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!)
Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!
My name is Jesus! (Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!)
Tell all the world He’s alive, He’s alive!
My name is Jesus!
