Ever since Eden death has been waiting
Every life is measured out in years
I've known its' sorrow i've felt its' shadow
And I have fought my fears

I know it comes for each of us
Yet I have hope in knowing that when it does

  In the garden Jesus faced it and He chose His Father's will
  The next day He embraced it with open arms on Calvary's Hill
  And death thought it had won until God's only Son
  Left the grave alive again

In the garden He faced it on Calvary He embraced it
And I praise God, three days later He erased it

Verse 2:
I have a Savior, what reassurance
Knowing that He did what I could not
He fought the battle, now I don't have to
His grace is all I've got

I'm not a victim anymore
For death is not an ending, its just a door

  In the garden Jesus faced it and He chose His Father's will
  The next day He embraced it with open arms on Calvary's Hill
  And death thought it had won until God's only Son
  Left the grave alive again

In the garden He faced it on Calvary He embraced it
And I praise God, three days later He erased it

  Death's hold has ended, its' strength is gone
  Though I'll go through it, I'll live on

  In the garden Jesus faced it and He chose His Father's will
  The next day He embraced it with open arms on Calvary's Hill
  And death thought it had won until God's only Son
  Left the grave alive again

In the garden He faced it on Calvary He embraced it
And I praise God, three days later He erased it (2x)
