REm SIbmaj7
There's a step that we all take alone,
DOmaj7 DO6 LA
an appointment we have with the great unknown,
REm SIbmaj7
like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass,
DOmaj7 DO6 LA
like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass,
REm SIbmaj7
But life seems so long and death so complete &
DOmaj7 DO6 LA
the grave an impossible portion to cheat,
REm SIbmaj7
but there is One who has been there & still lived to tell,
DOmaj7 DO6 LA
There is One who has been thru both Heaven & Hell,
REm DOmaj7 DO6
and the Grave will come up empty handed that day,
FA SOL
Jesus will come and steal us away
Chorus
DO SOLaddD
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
DO6 SOLaddD
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night,
DO SOLaddD
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
DO6 SOLaddD DO6
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally dies
Many still mourn, many still weep for those that they love who have
fallen asleep,
But we have this hope tho our hearts may still ache,
just one shout from above & they all will awake
and in the reunion what Joy we will see, Death will Be swallowed in sweet
Victory
(CHROUS)
When the last enemy is gone , from the dust will come a song,
those asleep will Be awakened, not a one will be forsaken
He will wipe away our tears, He will steal Away our fears
there will be no sad tomorrow,there will be no pain, no sorrow
(CHORUSx2)
