Not a word was heard from the tomb that day
Just the soldiers feet as they guarded the grave
One day, two days, three days had past
Could it be that Jesus had breathed His last
Could it be that the Father had forsaken Him
Turned his back on his Son, despising our sin
All hell seemed to whisper, "Forget Him He's dead"
But the Father looked down on His Son and said

CHORUS:
Arise My Love, arise My Love
The grave no longer has a hold on You
No more death sting, no more suffering
Arise, arise My Love

The earth trembled and the tomb began to shake
And like lightning from heaven the stone was rolled away
And as dead men, the guards stood there in fright as the
Power of love displayed its might
When suddenly a melody filled the air
Riding wings of wind it was everywhere
The word all creation had been longing to hear
The sweet sound of victory so loud and clear

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Sin… where are your shackles
Death…where is your sting
Hell had been defeated
The grave could not hold the King
