Lyrics
Verse 1
God and man were crucified
The day the Promised One had died
It seemed that heaven's love had lost
As Jesus hung upon the cross
Verse 2
His broken body laid to rest
As Earth was filled with hopelessness
'Til the son of man began to wake
And the tomb became an empty grave
Oh, the tomb became an empty grave
Chorus
It was the death of death when You rose to life
When the dark surrendered to the risen Light
O praise the Savior, Jesus Christ
It was the death of death and our victory
Verse 3
The war is won, the work is done
And hope for all the world has come
The victor never lost his crown
'Cause hell and grave can't hold Him down
No, hell and grave can't hold Him down
Chorus
It was the death of death when You rose to life
When the dark surrendered to the risen Light
O praise the Savior, Jesus Christ
It was the death of death and our victory
It was the death of death when You rose to life
When the dark surrendered to the risen Light
O praise the Savior, Jesus Christ
It was the death of death and our victory
Verse 4
It was the greatest gift, Your life for me
And fear has finished, my future bright
You gave it all, my heart the prize
It was the death of death and my victory
It was the death of death and our victory
Whoa-ohh
Chorus
It was the death of death when You rose to life
When the dark surrendered to the risen Light
O praise the Savior, Jesus Christ
It was the death of death and our victory
It was the death of death and our victory
