Every one s in need of a melody
Hope that will last when life is gone
An anthem we can sing for all eternity
Somehow here below we need a song
That's why we re blessed to serve a living God
Who writes music that is fitting for each voice
When He sent His Son to write this song for us,
It gave us every reason to rejoice.
Sin wrote the blame, grace heard the call
Guilt wrote my name then blood paid the cost
My failure wrote the penalty where I had gone so wrong
Then Jesus wrote a melody
And in three days, His empty grave wrote the song.
Oh what lyric there was written on that glorious day,
For the empty tomb had last the fight
Oh what harmonies were finished as He walked away
More beautiful than every song combined
And now the door is opened wide for me and you
And the notes are there for anyone to sing
Because He turned His grave into an empty room,
This song declares that we are free indeed.
(Repeat refrain 2x)
And in three days, His empty grave wrote the song.
