Put your sadness away
Wipe the tears from your face
It's a day for rejoicing
It's time to celebrate life
Time to sing with delight
And turn your mourning to dancing
Everybody come on lift your hands up and praise Him
Everybody come on lift your voice up and praise His name.

Chorus: (For) Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is risen
Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is living
Go and tell everybody you see
That He is living indeed
Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
Is the day

So every creature on earth
Let the message be heard
Join the great jubilation
Lift it high in the air
Shout His praise everywhere
Sing it to every nation
Everybody come on, clap your hands now and praise Him
Everybody come on shout together and raise His name up

Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is risen
Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is living
Gonna tell everybody I see
That He is living in me, yes
Today is the day
Today is the day
Is the...

They found the stone was rolled away
They found the tomb an empty grave
So raise the triumph of the ages

Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is risen
Today is the day
Yes, today is the day
He is living

(Repeat)
