Good Friday

So, I understand how Good Friday got its name. The idea that now, we look back at Christ's death through the lens of the Easter resurrection, and therefore see this horrible act as a pure act of love, through which we now have hope for the problem of sin. But, then why are church services on Good Friday still all dark, sad and candle-lit? It's like we're pretending we don't know what's coming.
