from the borrowed grave

rising up to leave behind

the tomb where he was laid
rising up to leave behind

the tomb where he was laid
Showing his disciples

why He came and where He'd go.
why He came and where He'd go.
It took a fOIty day long journey
to tell them all He had to say
With one question still unanswered

as they watched him go away
to tell them all He had to say

With one question still unanswered

as they watched him go away
With one question still unanswered

as they watched him go away
An angel came and told them

what they've not understood

though he said that, I've gone,

He ain't gone for good.
though he said that, I've gone,

He ain't gone for good.
He ain't gone for good.
Now he still gives the promise that
has been echoed through the years
It's the source of all we hope for,

but faith beyond the fear
It's the source of all we hope for,

but faith beyond the fear
It's the reason for believing,

He's the only one who could and

though He seems good and gone.

He ain't gone for good.
He's the only one who could and

though He seems good and gone.

He ain't gone for good.
INSTRUMENTAL
The mockers and the stalkers say

he ain't coming back

but concerning every prophecy,

he's been right on track
but concerning every prophecy,

he's been right on track
Appearance can be deceiving if
you ain't looking where you should
and though He seems good and gone

He ain't gone for good.
and though He seems good and gone

He ain't gone for good.
Now he still gives the promise that
has been echoed through the years,
it's the source of all we hope for,

but faith beyond the fear
It's the reason for believing, he's the
only one who could and though
He seems he's good and gone.

He ain't gone for good.
He ain't gone for good.
He's the reason for believing,

He's the only one who could

though it seems he's good and gone,

he ain't gone for good .......
