Three days in darkness far below

Death hearkens from an age ago
E7+ G#m9 F#6
The ancient promise that we waited for so long
A9(#11)
Has gone away
C#m9 A C#m9 A
All hope is lost, left upon that cross
C#m9 B
A bloodstained robe
A C#m9
It seems redemption's dream has died
C#m
Visions and the prophecies all washed away in vain
C#m A
Groanings of creation as it cries out in pain
C#m
Sacrosanct the stories of what is and what will be
C#m A
All foretold this was supposed to end so differently
C# A#º A
All nature mourns in unison
C# A#º A
Creation forms its requiem
A C#m
Branded with the mark of sin and shame
B
A life laid down, a cursed name
C#m
A crown forsaken, burden, blame
B
Another cycle just the same
A
Is this the end of promise
B G#m9
Dying all alone?

Easter morning's Son will rise

Radiance warming tearstained eyes
D#m E D#m E
The son of man shall be raised up on the third day
F#
The grave denied
( G#m G#m G#m E F# )
( G#m G#m G#m E F# )
G#m
Run and see the stone has rolled away behold the way
G#m
They're trembling in terror at the grave
(Is this an empty promise, that we've been waiting for?
Because I'm so afraid to get my hopes up anymore
Is this a cruel illusion? Or could it really be
The miracle of miracles unfolding right in front or me?)
E
Blinding angel, white as lightning
F#
Violent earthquakes, do not fear
E
Why seek the living among the dead?
E F#
Behold, he is not here
C#4 C# C#4 C# G#
Glory! Glory! Hope is alive
A° A#m F#
And lifted up, before your eyes

Death has died

Easter glory, what an ending to the story
F# G# C#
My son, arise!
