As morning breaks upon the tomb
Despair and sorrow flee and hide
For standing strong is Life himself,
The One who once was crucified.
The walls of Hell are broken down
And fallen before heaven’s Son
The halls of death lie crushed beneath
The King of kings, victorious One!
The blood stained shroud is laid aside
That held the sinless One who died
And running there to look inside
We see that death has been denied
And joy like sunrise starts to dawn
As hearts believe what angels know
And to the Savior we are drawn
To worship Jesus, bowing low
Amazing joy! For
Jesus lives
He’s conquered sin and death and hell
For us, and life eternal gives
And sends us with the news to tell
