On The Third Day Lyrics - Singles - Bethany Dillon & Matt Hammitt

Creation brings an offering 

As autumn leaves turn to gold 

The trees bow down in highest praise 

Now made bare before Your throne 

The western sky an amber blaze 

At the end of the day 

For everything must die to rise again 

The winters chill, a bitter cold 

As sin and shame leave us to fall 

The clouds now full of newborn snow 

For grace to come and save us all 

Within the darkest night of man 

Was found Your saving hand 

For everything must die to rise again 

On the third day behold the King 

On the third day death has no sting 

On the third day were forgiven and reconciled 

The earth it groans in labor pains 

As flowers stretch to heaven above 

Your creatures sing the prophets song 

To be a gift of selfless love 

The sun is rising in the east 

And Your Spirit is unleashed 

For everything must die to rise again 

On the third day behold the King 

On the third day death has no sting 

On the third day were forgiven and reconciled 

And so we wait in joyful hope 

For You to come and take us home 

And so we join beneath the cross 

In suffering from whence we go 

The greatest act of sovereign grace 

In the universe displayed 

For everything must die to rise again 

On the third day behold the King 

On the third day death has no sting 

On the third day were forgiven and reconciled 

On the third day the saints rejoice 

On the third day we lift our voice 

On the third day we're united and glorified 

And everything must die to rise again
