There was a battle on Cavalry
When on the Cross He'd died
Crucified, wounded,
Never defeated:
The Lord faced death
and He Conquered.
Our Lord died on the cross for us.
Then death died inside His tomb forever.
faced with darkness and our sin-
Lord, we should've known You'd win!
As He rose
He broke its chains
death's grip failed;
Christ's Life prevailed.
, and
death
died
that
day
When Christ rose radiant from the grave!
Slaying the impending doom
He snatched us from its jaw.
All fear of death
all hopelessness
left conquered at the cross.
all transience
by His Grace swept away!
For eternity make way!
Abundant life that never fades
He won for us
once death He slayed.
He cleansed our sin with Holy Blood
And with it our mortality-
washed off by the Lifeblood of the Living One!
The end has fled from His Great Power,
The grave
replaced with
Grace.
Behold- The Savior died and is alive forevermore!
The power of death left void.
"O Hades, where is your victory?
O Death, where is your sting?"
The Lord has snatched it all away
Against it He did win!
"Death is swallowed up in victory."
Praise the Conqueror, Amen!
He bore its sting in steadfast love
and rose above
Yes, death died that day.
Jesus took its sting away!
He is Risen!
He's not conquered like the enemy He crushed.
Yes, He fought our grim battle
the Valiant King
He did win!
and with His Triumph's ablaze
the victory to us He graciously gives..
With freedom graced and broken chains
We're free to dance atop death's grave
Rejoicing in eternal life
Let's sing the Victor's praise!
The One who won once and for all
The Christ whom God did raise!
