"Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb." |
The anthem that week was particularly fitting being based directly on the day's text from John: “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” You can read the text by following the link below: John 20: 1-18 |
