fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
|
|
I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of
the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way
I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while
I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

When the grave robber comes ...
There's a step that we all take alone
An appointment we have with the great unknown
Like a vapor, this life is waiting to pass
Like the flowers that fade like the withering grass
But life seems so long, and death so complete
And the grave an impossible portion to cheat
But there's One who has been there who still lives to tell
There is One who has been through both Heaven and Hell
And the grave will come up empty-handed that day
Jesus will come and steal us away
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
When the grave robber comes ...
Many still mourn, many still weep
For those whom they love who have fallen asleep
But we have this hope, though our hearts may still ache
Just one shout from above and they all will awake
And in the reunion of joy will we sing
Death will be swallowed in sweet victory
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
When the last enemy is gone
Out of the dust will come a song
Those asleep will be awakened
Not a one will be forsaken
He shall wipe away all tears
He will steal away our fears
There will be no sad tomorrow
There will be no pain or sorrow
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory, where is the prize
When the grave robber comes and death finally dies
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night
Where is the victory?
-David
