Death was Arrested
Alone in my sorrow and dead in my sin
Lost without hope and no place to begin
?Your love made a way to let mercy come in
When death was arrested and my life began
Verse 2:
Ash was redeemed, only beauty remains
(and) My orphan heart was given a name
My mourning grew quiet,
my feet rose to dance
When death was arrested and my life began
Chorus:
Oh Your grace so free washes over me
?You have made me new, now life begins with You
?It's Your endless love pouring down on us
?You have made us new now life begins with You
Verse 3:
Released from my chain, I'm a prisoner no more My shame was a ransom He faithfully bore
He canceled my debt and He called me His friend When death was arrested and my life began
Verse 4:
Our Savior displayed on a criminal's cross
(and) Darkness rejoiced as though Heaven had lost But then Jesus arose with our freedom in hand That's when death was arrested and my life began
Bridge:
?Oh we're free, free, forever we're free
Come join the song of all the redeemed
Yes we're free, free, forever amen
When death was arrested and my life began
