I
SOMEWHERE IN THE DISTANCE I HEARD THE HAMMER RING
AS THEY DROVE THE NAILS IN HIS HANDS AND FEET
AS THE CROWD GATHERED ROUND SAYING AWAY WITH HIM
BUT JESUS KNEW DOWN IN HIS HEART
THAT HE WOULD LIVE AGAIN.
II
AS HE LAY THERE IN THE TOMB WITH SOLDIERS CAMPED AROUND
GOD WAS MAKING PLANS TO SEND HIS ANGELS DOWN
THEY HEARD A SOUND FROM HEAVEN
AND THEY DIDN'T MAKE A SOUND
BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT SPOKE TO HIM
HE GOT UP AND WALKED AROUND.
CHORUS
HE HAS RISEN HE HAS RISEN
THAT OLD TOMB IS EMPTY NOW
ALL THAT REMAINS
IS GRAVE CLOTHES AND BLOOD STAINS
THAT OLD TOMB THAT OLD TOMB IS EMPTY NOW.
