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
