VERSE 1
Jesus Christ King of kings
Lord of every single thing
Risen from the grave you are victorious
Crucified upon the cross
Bore the sins for all of us
You broke the chains a death that was so glorious
PRE CHORUS
Because of you we shout, letting your spirit break out
Because of you we're free, free who you meant us to be
Because of you we sing, praises to worship the King
Praises to worship the King
CHORUS
Hallelujah Jesus is risen, the stone rolled away
Hallelujah death has been beaten the price has been paid
Hallelujah tell every nation their sins washed away
On this glorious day, because of you.
VERSE 2
Jesus Christ Holy one,
empty tomb the stone was gone
Resurrected King all heaven rejoices
Risen on this glorious day,
tears of sadness washed away
Earth and heaven sing with joyful voices

Home Before Dark

VERSE 1
A piece of me died when the last light went out
You left and gently closed the door
I raged and shouted from this side of life
But you couldn't hear me anymore.
Where once two flames danced together
Now there's just a spark
The days are less bright without you
But I confess that I prayed as I smiled at you
That you'd be called home, home before dark
CHORUS
I promised I'd love you
'til death tore us apart
and always take care of you
And now that you're gone
there's a hole in my heart
But I'm glad that you made it safe home...
Home before dark
VERSE 2
You switched off the lights in your world one by one
I watched the rooms dim from outside
Helplessly trying to break down the door
pleading to be let inside
'cos I promised to love you and take care of you
but sometimes I tried too hard
So through the anger and guilt I continued to pray
That you'd be called home, home before dark.
BRIDGE
Sometimes I saw when you smiled at me
a glimpse of how we were.
Then you'd hide deep inside and leave me outside
you in dark, me in day
I'd watch you fading away.
VERSE 3
60 plus years that our lives were entwined
three strands braided as one
Our dreams were bright, we shone like the sun
but the braid became slowly undone.
From the dark you saw strangers not family
and your smiles tore our hearts apart
And though I miss you dearly my prayer was answered
When you were called you home, home before dark.
