They thought that He would be gone forever
They thought that He would be gone for sure
They thought that He would be gone forever
And would not come back anymore

They put Him deep in the grave and left Him
They put Him deep in the grave and went
They put Him deep in the grave and left Him
And never thought they would see Him again
Never would see Him again

Then just like He said
He would rise from the dead
He's alive in glory forever
Just like He said
He would rise from the dead
He's alive in glory forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's true
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe it
Just like He said He would do
He would do
Just like He said He would do

No one believed He would be returning
No one believed, didn't want to know
No one believed He would be returning
How could this ever be so

But then one day all the angels shouted
But then one day all across the sky
But then one day all the angels shouted
He who was dead in the grave is alive
He who was dead is alive

Christ said, "Prepare yourself to be amazed"
Destroy this temple and I
Will raise it in only three days"

He has risen
Christ has risen
And He's alive evermore
