Dm D/Bb
THERE'S A STEP THAT WE ALL TAKE ALONE
C2 Am A
AN APPOINTMENT WE HAVE WITH THE GREAT UNKNOWN
Dm D/Bb
LIKE A VAPOR THIS LIFE IS JUST WAITING TO PASS
C2 Am A
LIKE THE FLOWERS THAT FADE, LIKE THE WITHERING GRASS
Dm D/Bb
BUT LIFE SEEMS SO LONG AND DEATH SO COMPLETE
C2 Am A
AND THE GRAVE AN IMPOSSIBLE PORTION TO CHEAT
Dm D/Bb
BUT THERE'S ONE WHO HAS BEEN THERE AND STILL LIVES TO TELL
C2 Am A
THERE IS ONE WHO HAS BEEN THROUGH BOTH HEAVEN AND HELL
Am Am/G# Am/G Am/F#
AND THE GRAVE WILL COME UP EMPTY-HANDED THE DAY
F G
JESUS WILL COME AND STEAL US AWAY
C2 G/B
WHERE IS THE STING, TELL ME WHERE IS THE BITE
Am G
WHEN THE GRAVE ROBBER COMES LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT
C2 G/B
WHERE IS THE VICTORY, WHERE IS THE PRIZE
Am F G Dm C2
WHEN THE GRAVE ROBBER COMES AND DEATH FINALLY DIES
Dm Bb
MANY STILL MOURN AND MANY STILL WEEP
C2 Am A
FOR THOSE THAT THE LOVE WHO HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP
Dm D/Bb
BUT WE HAVE THIS HOPE THOUGH OUR HEARTS MAY STILL ACHE
C Am A
JUST ONE SHOUT FROM ABOVE AND THEY ALL WILL AWAKE
Am Am/G# Am/G Am/F#
AND IN THE REUNION OF JOY WE WILL SEE
F G
DEATH WILL BE SWALLOWED IN SWEET VICTORY Chorus...
Am A# F
WHEN THE LAST ENEMY IS DONE FROM THE DUST WILL COME A SONG
Am A# F
THOSE ASLEEP WILL BE AWAKENED - NOT A ONE WILL BE FORSAKENED
Am A# F
HE SHALL WIPE AWAY OUR TEARS - HE WILL STEAL AWAY OUR FEARS
