“When Death Dies”
John
Rapid City Seventh-day Adventist Elementary School
Pennington County, South Dakota
Every bad thing that has ever happened
Every fault you’ve ever done
Shot away as swiftly as a stone from David’s sling
There is no judge to decide
Except the God who never lied
Turning bad to good
On a gravel road He stood
The robed men He eyed
Those Pharisees who tricked and lied
They crucified Him on the cross
God, the Lord, felt the loss
His son’s life slipped away
His body in a tomb did lay
To rise in three day’s time!
The grave could hold him not
He escaped death!
The evil reigned but fell back
Courage is what Satan shall always lack
He falls back at the sight of the Lord
His angels flee at the cherub’s sword
An invisible war between good and bad
The evil side is pathetic and sad
God shall conquer all
Our faith remains mighty and tall
