For some the grave's the end
Let me tell you bout my friend
Who defied human law
He came to give us His all
Let me tell ya that He did
You can't keep a candle hid
He blazed a path for you and me
And this is how it came to be
The Lord died
But He got back up
On Him they lied
But He got back up
They hung Him on the cross
But He got back up
So we wouldn't be lost
So we could get back up
Jesus didn't come for Himself
He came for everyone else
Took what I was supposed to take
And He did it so I could make
Sure His stories told
To both the young and the old
He is risen with full life
He is Jesus the Christ
The Lord died
But He got back up
On Him they lied
But He got back up
They hung Him on the cross
But He got back up
So we wouldn't be lost
So we could get back up
No one's ever done what He's done
Just because of His power and being Gods' Son
He overcame sin because He never gave in
For me He'd do it again because He calls me friend
But even more, we're who He came for
So He could be the door to help others up and off the floor
You know the story listen up
He was human just like me even wondered if this was the cup
That He should drink, He started to think, of being on the brink of turning but He had to be the link
Tween Heaven and earth
The Lord knew us first
Before our birth
Through all the way to our hearse
He died a death for us all
So now it's His call
Whether we stand or fall
Or even walk or crawl
Anything can change
It's not about who's to blame
You won't be the same
By the power of His name
The Lord died
But He got back up
On Him they lied
But He got back up
They hung Him on the cross
But He got back up
So we wouldn't be lost
So we could get back up
