In the darkness we were waiting

          A              D

Without hope without light

To a cradle in the dirt

[Chorus]

 

Bridge

        Bm                  G

And the morning that You rose

        A                  D

All of heaven held it’s breath

           Bm                       G

Till that stone was moved for good

         A                    D

For the Lamb had conquered death

         Bm                      G

And the dead rose from their tombs

        A                D

And the angels stood in awe

        Bm                   G

For the souls of all who’d come

        A             D

To the Father are restored

         D/F#                      G

And the Church of Christ was born

           A                 D

Then the Spirit lit the flame

         D/F#                  G

Now this gospel truth of old

           A                    D

Shall not kneel, shall not fade

 

        D/F#                 G

By His blood and in His name

             A                  D

And in His freedom I am free

        D/F#                G

For the love of Jesus Christ

        A            D

Who has resurrected me
