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
