G#m9G#m9      E7E7+      G#m9G#m9
Three days in darkness far below
        F#6F#6  A9(#11) G#m9G#m9
Death hearkens from an age ago
       E7E7+      G#m9G#m9      F#6F#6
The ancient promise that we waited for so long
   A9(#11)
Has gone away

C#m9C#m9     A augmentedA  C#m9C#m9       A augmentedA
All hope is lost, left upon that cross
C#m9C#m9      BB
A augmentedA bloodstained robe
      A augmentedA          C#m9C#m9
It seems redemption's dream has died

C# minorC#m
Visions and the prophecies all washed away in vain
C# minorC#m             A augmentedA
Groanings of creation as it cries out in pain
C# minorC#m
Sacrosanct the stories of what is and what will be
C# minorC#m                A augmentedA
All foretold this was supposed to end so differently

C#C#     F#/A#   A augmentedA
All nature mourns in unison
C#C#    F#/A#   A augmentedA
Creation forms its requiem
A augmentedA            C# minorC#m
Branded with the mark of sin and shame
          BB
A augmentedA life laid down, a cursed name
 C# minorC#m
A augmentedA crown forsaken, burden, blame
        BB
Another cycle just the same
  A augmentedA
Is this the end of promise
BB      G#m9G#m9
Dying all alone?
    A augmentedA        G# minorG#m
Easter morning's Son will rise
     A augmentedA
Radiance warming tearstained eyes
D#mD#m    E MajorE          D#mD#m       E MajorE
The son of man shall be raised up on the third day
      F#F#
The grave denied

(G# minorG#m G# minorG#m G# minorG#m E MajorE F#F#)
(G# minorG#m G# minorG#m G# minorG#m E MajorE F#F#)

G# minorG#m
Run and see the stone has rolled away behold the way
G# minorG#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 MajorE
Blinding angel, white as lightning
           F#F#
Violent earthquakes, do not fear
E MajorE
Why seek the living among the dead?
 E MajorE        F#F#
Behold, he is not here

C#4 C#C# C#4 C#C#     G#G#
Glory! Glory! Hope is alive
  A°   A#mA#m       F#F#
And lifted up, before your eyes
    G#G#   C#C#          BB
Waking all the world, open gates to paradise
     G# minorG#m      G#m/F#
Now it's done, life has come
     D#7/9/G
Death has died
F#F#   G#G#       F#F#      C#C# G#G#
Easter glory, what an ending to the story
F#F# G#G#  C#C#
My son, arise!

C# minorC#m     A augmentedA
Early misty morning
BB        C# minorC#m
Just before the dawn
  A augmentedA       G# minorG#m     C# minorC#m
An empty tomb, a broken body gone
C# minorC#m           A augmentedA
Thieves have done their bidding
BB          C# minorC#m
Before the light of day
     A augmentedA       G#G#    C# minorC#m
They‘ve stolen Him and taken Him away

    C# minorC#m   BB
Let me break apart
  A augmentedA          E MajorE    B/D#B/D#
The secrets you‘ve held in your heart
C# minorC#m  BB
Awaken now
A4  A augmentedA
Remember
A augmentedA   BB  C# minorC#m BB
Words you hid away
 A augmentedA        E MajorE B/D#B/D#     C# minorC#m
A augmentedA promise to rise after the third day
   BB
It's me
     A4 A augmentedA
Do you remember?

C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
All the things we'd hoped for
  BB       C# minorC#m
And waited for so long
  A augmentedA      BB      C# minorC#m
The kingdom of deliverance is gone
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA       BB       C# minorC#m
Faded like a candle snuffed out to kill the light
  A augmentedA      G#G#      C# minorC#m
The morning runs away into the night

C# minorC#m B/D#B/D# E minorEm  D MajorD
Let me break apart

Remember

Words you hid away

My promise to rise after the third day

It's me
     C4 C majorC   D4 D MajorD
Do you remember? Remember
