Death in His Grave
Audrey Assad

(cover of John Mark McMillan)


Though the earth cried out for blood

Satisfied her hunger was

Billows calmed on raging seas

For the souls of men she craved

Sun and moon on balcony

Turned their head in disbelief

Their precious love would taste the sting

Disfigured and disdained


On Friday a thief

On Sunday a king

Laid down in grief

But woke with the keys

To hell on that day

First born of the slain

The man Jesus Christ laid

Death in his grave


So three days in darkness slept

The morning sun of righteousness

But rose to shame the throws of death

And overturn his rule

Now daughters and the sons of men

Would not pay their dues again

The debt of blood they owed was rent

When the day rolled anew


On Friday a thief

On Sunday a king

Laid down in grief

But woke with the keys

To hell on that day

First born of the slain

The man Jesus Christ laid

Death in his grave


He has cheated hell

And seated us above the fall

In desperate places he paid our wages

One time once and for all


On Friday a thief

On Sunday a king

Laid down in grief

But woke with the keys

To hell on that day

First born of the slain

The man Jesus Christ laid

Death in his grave
