Arise my love
Not a word was heard at the tomb that dayJust shuffling of soldiers feet as they guarded the graveOne day two days three days had pastCould it be that Jesus breathed His last
Could it be that His Father had forsaken him?Turned His back on His Son despising our sin.O hell seemed to whisper just forget it He's deadThen the Father looked down to His Son and He said
Arise My loveArise My loveThe grave no longer has a hold on YouNo more death's stingNo more sufferingArise arise my Love
The earth trembled and the tomb began to shakeAnd like lightning from HeavenThe stone was rolled awayAnd like dead man the guards they all stood there in frightAs the power of love displayed its mightThen suddenly a melody filled the airRiding wings of wind it was everywhereThe words all creation had been longing to hearThe sweet sound of victory so loud and clear
Sin where are your shacklesDeath where is your stingHell has been defeatedThe grave could not hold the King
Arise arise arise
