Oh how they all laughed and scorned
As Jesus bore the crown of thorns
And how they cheered in loud display
As nails were driven all the way
Through hands and feet to crimson wood
Blood dripping down to where they stood
Bruised and beat and bleeding red
The Christ, the King, is nailed and dead
The corpse of Jesus now entombed
The worry of His promise loomed
Three days of silence prophesied
For Jesus Christ to die then rise
The stone was moved, the entrance clear
No one, no body did appear
No mortal man could launch this feat
The prophecy is now complete
Death to life, the Messiah rose
Greatest act of love anyone has known
For He loved the world, gave His only Son
Conqueror of death, Mighty Holy One
Blood was spilled and the promise kept
Of eternal life for all who accept
Now that sin’s conquered, the Messiah reigns
Everlasting life, the gift that remains
For He loved the world, gave His only Son
Conqueror of death, Mighty Holy One
Now that Jesus gave his life
He now can dwell in you and I
The Holy Ghost has set us free
From pain and sin and misery
Eternal life in paradise
Paid by the blood of Jesus Christ
As Jesus bore the crown of thorns
And how they cheered in loud display
As nails were driven all the way
Through hands and feet to crimson wood
Blood dripping down to where they stood
Bruised and beat and bleeding red
The Christ, the King, is nailed and dead
The corpse of Jesus now entombed
The worry of His promise loomed
Three days of silence prophesied
For Jesus Christ to die then rise
The stone was moved, the entrance clear
No one, no body did appear
No mortal man could launch this feat
The prophecy is now complete
Death to life, the Messiah rose
Greatest act of love anyone has known
For He loved the world, gave His only Son
Conqueror of death, Mighty Holy One
Blood was spilled and the promise kept
Of eternal life for all who accept
Now that sin’s conquered, the Messiah reigns
Everlasting life, the gift that remains
For He loved the world, gave His only Son
Conqueror of death, Mighty Holy One
Now that Jesus gave his life
He now can dwell in you and I
The Holy Ghost has set us free
From pain and sin and misery
Eternal life in paradise
Paid by the blood of Jesus Christ
