Woman, weeping in the garden, who has pushed the stone aside? Who has taken Jesus' body; Jesus Christ, the crucified? Woman, waiting in the garden, after men have come and gone; after angels give their witness, silently you watch the dawn. Woman, walking in the garden, Jesus takes you by surprise; when the gardener call you, "Mary!" faith and joy meet in your eyes. Woman weeping in the garden, weeping for joy, for you have seen Jesus, the Messiah risen: Christ, of whom the prophets dream. Woman, dancing from the garden, find the others and proclaim Christ is risen as he promised; tell the world he knew your name!
