there rose a lamb

THERE ROSE A LAMB

IT WAS THE THIRD DAY SINCE HE DIED
AND IT WAS SAID HE WOULD ARISE
THEN FROM THE GRAVE THIS LAMB CAME FORTH
OH I HAVE REASON TO REJOICE

HE CHOSE THE PLACE, HE CHOSE THE HOUR
THAT HE WOULD RISE BY HIS OWN POWER
A SACRIFICE THREE DAYS AGO
AND NOW PRAISE GOD THE LAMB AROSE

CHORUS
THERE ROSE A LAMB IN JERUSALEM
HE WAS THE SON OF THE GREAT I AM
HE PROVED TO BE MY VICTORY
THERE ROSE A LAMB IN JERUSALEM

I WASN`T THERE WHEN JESUS DIED
I WASN`T THERE TO SEE HIM RISE
BUT I WAS THERE WHEN HE SAVED MY SOUL
FOR WITHIN MY HEART HIS LOVE AROSE

CHORUS
THERE ROSE A LAMB IN JERUSALEM
HE WAS THE SON OF THE GREAT I AM
HE PROVED TO BE MY VICTORY
THERE ROSE A LAMB IN JERUSALEM

HE AROSE, HE AROSE HALLELUJAH CHRIST AROSE
HE AROSE, HE AROSE HALLELUJAH CHRIST AROSE
HE PROVED TO BE MY VICTORY
THERE ROSE A LAMB IN JERUSALEM
