death in his grave.

i have posted the video to this song before.
i'm not good myself at actually watching videos that people post
but if you like worship music and want to be moved,
listen to this song:

though the earth cried out for blood
satisfied her hunger was
her billows calmed on raging seas
for the souls of men she craved

sun & moon from balcony
turned their head in disbelief
their precious Love would taste the sting
disfigured & disdained

on friday a thief
on sunday a king
laid down in grief
but awoke with the keys
of Hell on that day
the first born of the slain
the Man Jesus Christ
laid death in his grave

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

on friday a thief
on sunday a king
laid down in grief
but awoke with the keys
of Hell on that day
the first born of the slain
the Man Jesus Christ
laid death in his grave

He has cheated death and seated us above the fall

in desperate places he paid our wages

one time.

once and for all.
