Lyrics

Swallowed into earth's dark womb
Death has triumphed
That's what they say
But try to hold him in the tomb
The son of life
Rose on the third day

Look!
The gates of hell
They're falling
Crumbling from the inside out
He's bursting through
The walls with laughter (hah!)
Listen to the angels shout

It is finished
He has done it
Life conquered death
Jesus christ
Has won it

His plan of battle fooled them all
They led him off to prison to die
But as he entered hades hall
He broke those hellish chains with a cry

Just listen to those demons screaming
See him bruise the serpent's head
The prisoners of hell
He's redeeming (oh!)
All the power of death is dead

It is finished
He has done it
Life conquered death
Jesus christ
Has won it

Look!
The gates of hell they're falling
Crumbling from the inside out
He's bursting through the walls with laughter (hah!)
Listen to the angels shout
(Listen, oh, listen)

It is finished
He has done it
Life conquered death
Jesus christ
Has won it

It is finished
He has done it
Life conquered death
Jesus christ
Has won it
