Death In His Grave

VerseThough the Earth Cried out for blood Satisfied her hunger was Billows calmed on raging seas for the souls on men she craved

Sun and moon from balcony Turned their head in disbelief Precious Love would taste the sting disfigured and disdained

Chorus On Friday a thief On Sunday a King Laid down in grief But woke with keys To Hell on that day The first born of the slain The Man Jesus Christ Laid death in his grave

Verse So three days in darkness slept The Morning Sun of righteousness But rose to shame the throes of death And over turn his rule

Now daughters and the sons of men Would pay not their dues again The debt of blood they owed was rent When the day rolled anew

Chorus On Friday a thief On Sunday a King Laid down in grief But woke with the keys To Hell on that day The first born of the slain The Man Jesus Christ Laid death in his grave

Bridge He has cheated Hell and seated Us above the fall In desperate places He paid our wages One time once and for all
