ELet no one caught in sin remain
InAside the lie of inBward shame
EBut fix our eyes upon the cross
And ruAn to Him who C#mshowed great Blove
And blEed Afor Bus
Freely You’ve bled for us

Christ is Erisen from the dead
Trampling over death by death
Come aAwake, come awake
Come and C#mrise up from the Bgrave
Christ is Erisen from the dead
We are one with Him again
Come awake, come aAwake
Come aC#mnd rise up from the Bgrave

EBeneath the weight of all our sin
AYou bowed to none but heaven’s will
ENo scheme of hell, no scoffer's crown
