not a word was heard at the tomb that day
Just shuffling soldiers feet as they guarded the grave
one day two days three days had passed
Could it be that jesus had breathed his last
Could it be that his father had forsaken him
Turned his back on his son dispising our sin
All hell seemed to wisper just forget it he's dead
Then the father looked down to his son and said
Arise my love arise my love
The grave no longer has a hold on you
No more death's sting no more suffering
Arise arise my love
the earth trembled and the tomb began to shake
And like lightning from heaven the stone rolled away
And as dead men the guards they all stood there in fright
As the power of love displayed it's might
Then suddenly a molody filled the air
Riding wings of wind it was everywhere
The words that creation had been longing to hear
The sweet sound of victory so loud and clear
Arise my love arise my love
The grave no longer has a hold on you
No more death's sting no more suffering
Arise arise
Sin where are your shakles death where is your sting
Hell has been defeated the grave could not hold the king
Arise my love arise my love
The grave no longer has a hold on you
No more death's sting no more suffering
Arise arise arise
