Victory over Death
I am giving you a revelation,
A secret for jubilation;
For we will not all sleep in death,
After losing our last breath.
We will be going through a change,
That may be feeling a little strange;
But within this transformation,
And shall be your affirmation.
Within the shutting of an eye,
As long as it takes for a sigh;
When heard the sound of the last horn,
Connotes when you will be reborn.
And at the sound the dead will rise,
Power over death where once lies;
For eternal life now that reigns,
No longer death to cause the pains.
The pain of death is caused by sin,
That has corrupted you within;
The power of sin is the Law,
Like a cancer within each flaw.
But praise be onto our Lord,
For Jesus Christ has reassured;
That death does not have victory,
Through Him live an eternity.
