At the tomb one bright mornin'
to Mary's surprise
Three days now had past
Since her master died
But grief turned to joy
For the stone had been moved
The dawn watched to son rise
from the dark of the tomb
Leavin' death in the shadows
He rose from the gloom
Why seek ye the livin'
among the dead
The angels had spoken
He's livin' they said
Salvation's plan finished
Completed it's through
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
Two thousand years now
have faded away
While kings
and their kingdoms
still lie in their graves
Jesus is livin'
And he reigns supreme
No power could hold him
For he took death's sting
Locked hell and the grave
And he holds the key
Why seek ye the livin'
among the dead
The angels had spoken
He's livin' they said
Salvation's plan finished
Completed it's through
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
Why seek ye the livin'
among the dead
The angels had spoken
He's livin' they said
Salvation's plan finished
Completed it's through
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
For the cross now is empty
And so is the tomb
