I talked to Him today

He was lead to Golgotha on the outskirts of town
There nailed to a rugged cross as His mockers gathered round
The sky spoke like thunder when He finally bowed His head
He who had given life now hung there dead
Then His mom and some friends came to carry Him away
They were trying to speak through a broken heart that only tears could say
The sun said cast no shadow on the world's darkest day
And with one last look they laid Him in the grave

But I talked to Him today and my cares all fell away
He made me feel like life had just begun
He said all of my trials can be turned into triumph
Through the victory that He's already won
And I talked to Him today and the comfort that He gave
Filled me with desire to tell the world that on Calvary He died
But right now He is alive, I know because I talked to Him today

Mary Magdalene came breathless to the place where Peter lay
He was searching through His broken heart
Trying to find the faith to pray
But as He heard her joyful story his sorrow could not stay
And his hope sprang up through the words he heard he'll say

She said I talked to Him today and my cares all fell away
He made me feel like life had just begun
He said all of my trials can be turned into triumph
Through the victory that He's already won
And I talked to Him today and the comfort that He gave
Filled me with desire to tell the world that on Calvary He died
But right now He is alive, I know because I talked to Him today

That on Calvary I've died
But right now He is alive, I know because I talked to Him today
