O Death

VERSE 1
O death, where’s your boast, where’s your glory
What of your pretension have you left
Foolish was your pride and vain ambition
You tried and were found wanting in the end

CHORUS
All you did was all you could and yet it failed you
For Jesus rose and sank you to the grave
And in resurrection I refuse to fear you
O death, you died and I’m alive instead

VERSE 2
O death, where’s your bite, where’s your triumph
Quickly how the tables turned, it seems
You must’ve thought that Friday sealed your victory
But Sunday came and trampled on your scheme

CHORUS
All you did was all you could and yet it failed you
For Jesus rose and sank you to the grave
And in resurrection I refuse to fear you
O death, you died and I'm alive instead

BRIDGE
All you meant for evil God destined for my good
Kill my body you could, but still I’ll live on forever
And when I should breathe no more
Louder then I’ll sing for
Death you are the wide door
To where I’ll live on forever
(In the presence of my Savior)

CHORUS 2
Thank you Jesus for the way that it is finished
Thank you Jesus for the way that it is done
Thank you Jesus for the way of Your salvation
O Jesus, for Your death defying love
