At the Breaking of Day Lyrics & Chords

By The McKameys

At the breaking of day the world slept as now 

 god's son left the tomb the guards knew not how 

 an angel from heaven rolled the great stone away 

 and the tomb was found empty at the breaking of day. 



 Great fear gripped the keepers they became as dead men 

 when they found the tomb was empty where jesus has been 

 god sent an earthquake an angel came down 

 neatly folded the linen that had my lord bound. 



 While a new day is dawning soon he's coming again 

 the great king on kings as the savior of men 

 in power and great glory we'll all soar away 

 so look up weary pilgrim its the breaking of day. 



 At the breaking of day the grave could not hold him 

 he arose the third day just like he had told them 

 thank god i'm so glad that he made a way 

 by the cross and the grave at the breaking of day.
