Verse 1
They placed You in a borrowed grave
Sealed the stone, they thought it stayed
Hands that pierced and mocked Your name
Thought the cross had ended grace
You were wounded for our sin
Bore the weight we couldn’t win
Every stripe, a healing sign
Every scar, redemption’s line
Pre-Chorus
What was meant to end the light
Could not hold You in the night
Chorus
The cross was not the end
Death could not contain You
God has raised You up again
Now we sing hallelujah
The cross was not the end
Love has made a way through
Every promise still stands
Jesus, You are risen
Verse 2
On the third day, just as You said
Stone was rolled, the tomb was dead
“He is risen,” angels spoke
Every chain forever broke
What the hands of man had done
God reversed through His Son
From the cross to victory
You have conquered sin for me
Pre-Chorus
You fulfilled what You foretold
Now Your glory is made known
Chorus
The cross was not the end
Death could not contain You
God has raised You up again
Now we sing hallelujah
The cross was not the end
Love has made a way through
Every promise still stands
Jesus, You are risen
Bridge
You were crucified
But God raised You up
You were lifted high
You have overcome
Sin has lost its grip
Death has lost its claim
Jesus, risen King
Reigns forevermore
You were crucified
But God raised You up
You were lifted high
You have overcome
Final Chorus
The cross was not the end
Death could not contain You
God has raised You up again
Now we sing hallelujah
The cross was not the end
Love has made a way through
Every promise still stands
Jesus, You are risen
The cross was not the end
You have won salvation
Hope is alive again
Jesus, we adore You
