Lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
The garden's still, the evening won't let go
A sealed-up stone and nothing left to hold
The ones who loved Him gathered in their grief
Wondering how the world could take their King
Pre-Chorus
But the morning had a promise that the night could never keep
And the earth began to tremble in its sleep
Chorus
On that day the stone was rolled away
On that day the darkness lost its claim
Every tear, every tomb, every borrowed grave
Gave it back on that day
Verse 2
She came before the sunrise, came to mourn
And found the linen folded, nothing torn
Two angels at the place where He had lain
Said, "Why do you look for the living with the slain?"
Pre-Chorus
But the morning had a promise that the night could never keep
And the earth began to tremble in its sleep
Chorus
On that day the stone was rolled away
On that day the darkness lost its claim
Every tear, every tomb, every borrowed grave
Gave it back on that day
Bridge
Now every grave is just a door
Every ending holds a something more
The hands that broke the bands of death
Still reach for us with every breath
Verse 3
And He walks with us through every quiet road
Carries every weight we try to hold
Because He rose, the plan was always true
That we would rise and be made whole there too
Pre-Chorus
And the morning keeps its promise that the night could never keep
And the ones we love are never gone, just asleep
Chorus
On that day the stone was rolled away
On that day the darkness lost its claim
Every tear, every tomb, every borrowed grave
Gave it back on that day
Outro
On that day
On that day
On that day
