We fell asleep, honestly
We didn't see a thing
When we awoke no one spoke
We hoped it was a dream
No one really thought that they would come
To take Him away
When I think of that empty tomb
I know that I'm to blame
There must have been several men
to roll the stone away
All the guard throughout the yard
Will swear by what I say
When I think of that empty tomb
It fills me with shame
Honestly, I saw everything
They told what to say
But for me, it wasn't the money
I was just so afraid
They could take my job away
I have bills to pay
When I first saw the glow of sun
The ground began to shake
The ground began to shake
I saw a light grow in the sky
It grew in its descent
It grew in its descent
A mighty man adorned in light
He rolled the stone away
He rolled the stone away
The dead man rose, the dead man walked
I thought it was the end
I thought it was the end
We became dead men
Me and all my men
We were like dead men
Was this really the Son of God risen from the dead?
We didn't see a thing
When we awoke no one spoke
We hoped it was a dream
No one really thought that they would come
To take Him away

I know that I'm to blame
