And learned the things pertaining

His soul scars upward free.
When the light Of life was gone.

The earthquake split rocks and stone
Ere It's fierce force was spent.

The sun It's last beams shed
As they laid him IN the tomb
Among the silent dead
Among the blooming howefs
The birds sang soft and low
Tan palms hung the bowers
The Savior lay below.
