More about Kathryn Latour:
I studied piano beginning at age 8 and my best skill is sight reading. I have had vocal instruction and have sung in church, university, and performance choirs since age 12. I received conducting training and subsequently led youth choirs, a semi professional adult choir, and a university choir. Because of the need for certain suitable music, I have had to arrange music for my choirs and have learned how to compose as a result. I still do a great deal of accompanying (on piano and organ) and leading choirs.

Lyrics: Once in a garden, in a city called Jerusalem,
Came a young maiden with a soul full of loss.
Her heart was broken for the rulers had spoken
That Jesus, her Master, would die on the cross.

She had looked on as they placed Him in a borrowed tomb.
Bold Roman soldiers had sealed it with stone.
Finding it empty with the clothes folded gently,
But where had they taken the One who atoned?

Prophets had told of the coming Messiah,
The One who would save Israel.
Jesus had said that He came to redeem them.
But now He was gone. Their hope was now gone!

"Please, Sir," said the maiden to a man she thought was gardening.
"I seek the body of Jesus, My King."
"Mary," He whispered. As He uttered that one word,
She knew He had risen and death had no sting.

Jesus is risen and death has no sting.
