Messiah Overcame
The Earth shook in agony
The rock spilt in pain
The sky abandoned light
As the lamb of God was slain
Creation wept in sorrow
When the Maker breathed His last
A sacrifice of love
To bridge the canyon sin had cast
But, oh, He is alive again
Hell is trampled, the battle is done
Messiah Overcame
Defeated the grave
To Jesus our King
All glory and praise
Messiah overcame
The name above all names
He is risen indeed
Oh, come and see
Messiah overcame
And though we were the villain's still
Our hero paid the cost
The Savior bruised and torn
Chose to wear the sinners cross
He walked the road before us
For Hell was in our path
He bore the wounds of sin and crushed
By the weight of Holy wrath
Oh, He is alive again
Death is swallowed, the victory won!
Messiah Overcame
Defeated the grave
To Jesus our King
All glory and praise
Messiah overcame
The name above all names
He is risen indeed
Oh, come and see
Hallelujah, what a savior
Hallelujah, what a King
Oh, hallelujah, sing forever
Hallelujah, what a King
He defeated the grave
To Jesus our King
All glory and praise
Messiah overcame
The name above all names
He is risen indeed
Oh, come and see
Messiah overcame
Oh, come and see
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Messiah overcame
