What a Difference a Day Makes
As she lay down to sleep
Mary started to weep
Remembering the cross and the nails
She was there when He died
As the spear pierced His side
She watched as the Savior travailed
And now her life seemed
Like the end of a dream
That left her heart saddened with gloom
But in the morning, she'd go
Watch them roll back the stone
And step in a now-empty tomb
What a difference a day makes
What a change in the air
When a glorious feeling of hope
Cuts through the doubt and despair
Though the night seems so long
Soon the morning will break
And you'll discover at dawn
What a difference a day makes
For the mother whose child
Has grown restless and wild
And you feel like your prayers are in vain
And for the Father whose plans
Have slipped right through your hands
You cannot see past all the pain
For the daughters and sons
For the prodigal ones
For the lonely, the weak or afraid
Don't lose faith in the night
When the morning brings light
It will drive all the shadows away
On a difference a day makes
What a change in the air
When a glorious feeling of hope
Cuts through the doubt and despair
Though the night seems so long
Soon the morning will break
And you'll discover at dawn
What a difference a day makes
What a difference a day makes
What a change in the air
When a glorious feeling of hope
Cuts through the doubt and despair
Though the night seems so long
Soon the morning will break
And you'll discover at dawn
What a difference a day makes
Though the night seems so long
Soon the morning will break
You'll discover at dawn
What a difference a day makes
You'll discover at dawn
What a difference a day makes
What a difference it makes
