sting of death - extol lyrics

[intro]
but let me tell you something wonderful
a mystery i’ll probably never fully understand
on signal heaven, the dead will be up and out of their graves
beyond the reach of death, never to die again
at the same moment and in the same way, we’ll all be changed
in the resurrection scheme of things, this has to happen
everything perishable taken off the shеlves and replaced by thе imperishable
this mortal replaced by the immortal
then the saying will come true
death swallowed by triumphant life!
who got the last word, oh, death?
oh, death, who’s afraid of you now?

[verse 1]
anxiety and fear
a life in chains
a clammy hand that grips the heart
squeezing the joy out of everyday life

[chorus]
the perishable will clothe itself with the imperishable
the mortal clothed with immortality
oh death where is your victory?
oh death where is your sting?
[verse 2]
inadequacy, shame
a notion of being small, n0body, nothing
a pain from deep within
knowing i’m not the one i should have been

[interlude]
it was sin that made death so frightening
and law*code guilt that gave sin its leverage, its destructive power
but now in a single victorious stroke of life, all three – sin, guilt, death are gone, the gift of our master, jesus christ

[verse 3]
loneliness, emptiness
withdrawing into myself
confused about truth
lost in the egocentric sphere of my pathetic life

[outro]
oh death where is your victory?
the mortal clothed with immortality
oh death where is your sting?
the mortal clothed with immortality
oh death where is your victory?
oh death where is your sting?
