Once I went walking down a long, lonely road,
I thought I, I had no one who would share my heavy load.
Then my mind went soaring back to a place I had never been
and I realized that I was standing at the foot of my king.
There were three lonely crosses on a hillside that day
and as I looked at my Savior, I cried Lord, take me away.
There was blood flowing down, and thorns pierced His head
But He cried, "Father forgive", and then my Savior was dead.
Well, I stood there in silence, thinking Lord, how can this be?
That your beloved son, He gave His life just for me.
Oh, then I heard a sweet voice whisper, "Child lift up your head,
For the one that you see hanging there, Well, Jesus, he's not dead."
He's alive...He's alive! No, death could not hold Him
He's alive...He's alive! Oh the stone it was rolled away
Satan thought He'd won the battle when Jesus died on that tree
Oh but Jesus came back from the grave, and He won the victory.
He's alive...He's alive! No, death could not hold Him
He's alive...He's alive! Oh the stone it was rolled away
Satan thought He'd won the battle when Jesus died on that tree
Oh, but my Jesus came back from the grave, and He won the victory
Yes, Jesus came back from the grave, and He won the victory
He is alive
I thought I, I had no one who would share my heavy load.

Oh, but my Jesus came back from the grave, and He won the victory
Yes, Jesus came back from the grave, and He won the victory
He is alive
