Lyrics
THE TOMB IS NOW EMPTY(THE CROSS IS NOW BARE)
THEY NAILED HIM TO A CROSS, CRUELLY CRUCIFIED
THEY MOCKED AND THEY SCORNED HIM, 'TILL HE FINALLY DIED
THEY SAW THAT HE WAS DEAD THEN SAID TAKE HIM AWAY
GO PLACE HIM IN A TOMB BUT THERE HE WOULD NOT STAY
CHORUS 1
THE TOMB IS NOW EMPTY, THE CROSS IS NOW BARE
FOR MY LORD AND SAVIOUR IS NO LONGER THERE
THEY COULDN'T KEEP HIM DOWN, FOR HE WAS HOMEWARD BOUND
THE GRAVE IS NOW EMPTY THE CROSS IS NOW BARE
THEY PLACED HIM IN A TOMB SEALED IT WITH A STONE
GUARDED IT WITH SOLDIERS DISCIPLES WENT HOME
THEN ON THE THIRD MORNING SAW THE STONE HAD BEEN MOVED
THE TOMB WAS NOW EMPTY HIS RISING WAS NOW PROVED
REPEAT CHORUS 1
CHORUS 2
THE GRAVE IS NOW EMPTY HE SITS ON HIS THRONE
HE'S BUILDING MY MANSION TO WELCOME ME HOME
YES DEATH IS DEFEATED MISSION NOW COMPLETED
THE GRAVE IS VACATED JESUS HAS GONE HOME
TAG:YES THE GRAVE IS NOW EMPTY THE CROSS IS NOW BARE
