Glorious Day by Passion/Kristian Stanfill

Passion Worship Band

I was buried beneath my shameWho could carry that kind of weight?It was my tomb'Til I met You

I was breathing, but not aliveAll my failures I tried to hideIt was my tomb'Til I met You

You called my nameThen I ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious dayYou called my nameAnd I ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious day

Now Your mercy has saved my soulNow Your freedom is all that I knowThe old made newJesus, when I met You, whoa, what a day

When you called my nameAnd I ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious dayYou called my nameThen I ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious day

I needed rescueMy sin was heavyBut chains break at the weight of Your gloryI needed shelterI was an orphanBut You call me a citizen of HeavenWhen I was brokenYou were my healingNow Your love is the air that I'm breathingI have a futureMy eyes are open

'Cause when you called my nameI ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious dayYou called my nameAnd I ran out of that graveOut of the darknessInto Your glorious day

Forever by Kari Jobe

Kari Jobe

The moon and stars they weptThe morning sun was deadThe savior of the world was fallenHis body on the crossHis blood poured out for usThe weight of every curse upon him

One final breath he gaveAs heaven looked awayThe son of God was laid in darknessA battle in the graveThe war on death was wagedThe power of hell forever broken

The ground began to shakeThe stone was rolled awayHis perfect love could not be overcomeNow death where is your stingOur resurrected king has rendered you defeated

Forever, he is glorifiedForever, he is lifted highForever, He is risenHe is aliveHe is alive

The ground began to shakeThe stone was rolled awayHis perfect love could not be overcomeNow death where is your stingOur resurrected king has rendered you defeated

Forever, he is glorifiedForever, he is lifted highForever, he is risenHe is aliveHe is alive

We sing hallelujahWe sing hallelujahWe sing hallelujahThe lamb has overcome

Forever, he is glorifiedForever, he is lifted highForever, he is risenHe is aliveHe is alive
