The Imperials - Arise, My Love lyrics

Not a word was heard At the tomb that day Just shuffling of soldiers feet As they guarded the grave One day, two days Three days had past Could it be that Jesus Breathed His last? Could it be that His Father Had forsaken him? Turned his back on his son Despising our sin All hell seemed to whisper "Just forget Him, He's dead." Then the Father looked down To his son and he said... Arise, My love Arise, My love The grave no longer Has a hold on you No more d**h's sting No more suffering Arise... Arise... My love The Earth trembled And the tomb began to shake And like lightning From Heaven the stone was rolled away And as dead man The guards they all stood there in fright As the power of love Displayed it's might Then suddenly a melody Filled the air Riding wings of wind It was everywhere The words all creation Had been longing to hear The sweet sound of victory So loud and clear Arise, my love Arise, my love The grave no longer has a hold on you No more d**h's sting No more suffering Arise... Arise... Sin, where are your shackles? d**h, where is your sting? Hell has been defeated The grave could not hold the king Arise, My love Arise, My love The grave no longer Has a hold on you No more d**h's sting No more suffering Arise... Arise... Arise
