"Arise My Love" lyrics:

Not a word was heard
At the tomb that day
Just shuffling soldier's feet
As they guarded the grave
One day, two days, three days had passed
Could it be that Jesus breathed His last?

Could it be that His Father
Had forsaken Him
Turned His back on His Son
Despising our sin
All Hell seemed to whisper
"Just forget Him, He's dead"
Then The Father looked down
To His Son and said

Arise, my love
Arise, my love
The grave no longer has a hold on You
No more death's sting
No more suffering
Arise
Arise, my love

The earth trembled
The tomb began to shake
And like like lightning from Heaven
The stone was rolled away
And like dead men the guards
Stood there in fright
As the power of love displayed its might

Then suddenly a melody filled the air
Riding wings of wind it was everywhere
The words all creation had been longing to hear
The sweet sound of victory so loud and clear

Arise, my love
Arise, my love
The grave no longer has a hold on You
No more death's sting
No more suffering
Arise
Arise

Sin where are your shackles?
Death where is your sting?
Hell has been defeated
The grave could not hold The King

Arise, my love
Arise, my love
The grave no longer has a hold on You
No more death's sting
No more suffering
Arise
Arise
Arise
