Lyrics Buried in the Grave - All Sons & Daughters, Leslie Jordan, David Leonard

Buried in the Grave

There was a day we held our breath
And felt the sting of bitter death
When all our hopes were buried in the grave
Our eyes awake, our hearts were torn
Between our faith and what we knew
Before our King was buried in the grave
And grace was in the tension
Of everything we’ve lost
Standing empty handed
Shattered by the cross
All we have, all we had
Was a promise like a thread
Holding us, keeping us
Oh, from fraying at the edge
All we knew, all we knew
Was You, said You’d come again
You’d rise up from the dead
There was a day we looked for proof
That You had risen from the tomb
And all our doubts began to roll away
We touched the scars upon Your hands
You kept Your word, oh son of man
You buried death by taking on the grave
You came here to save us
'Cause everything was lost
No longer empty handed
Clinging to the cross
All we have, all we had
Was a promise like a thread
Holding us, keeping us
Oh, from fraying at the edge
All we knew, all we knew
Was You, said You’d come again
You’d rise up from the dead
It is well, it is done
All we have, all we had
Is a promise like a thread
Holding us, keeping us
Oh, from fraying at the edge
All we know, all we know
Is You, said You’d come again
You rose up from the dead
All we have, all we had
Is a promise like a thread
Holding us, keeping us
Oh, from fraying at the edge
All we know, all we know
Is You, said You’d come again
You rose up from the dead
You rose up from the dead
