I'll Race You To The Tomb

Karl Kohlhase


Two days of desperation,
The darkest days that they had ever known;
The sun would not shine for them.
There in their darkened chamber 
A ray of light rode in upon these words:
Our Savior is risen. 

And their minds were filled with questions,
Their hearts with new found hope.
On your mark, get set, let's go
I'll race you to the tomb, I'll race you to the tomb.

Imagine being one of them,
When all your hopes were nailed upon a tree...
The death of a thousand dreams.
And deafened by your sadness
You see their lips move,
But you hardly hear their meaning:
There's reason to hope again.

And your mind is filled with questions,
Your heart with new found hope.
On your mark, get set, let's go
I'll race you to the tomb, I'll race you to the tomb.

So put an end to all of your questions,
'Cause there's hope enough for you
There at the empty tomb.
I'll race you to the tomb.
