Sunday Is Coming

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A great light dawns in Galilee Some say madman, some say King Wonder-workin' rebel priest Jesus Christ the Nazarene [Verse 2] He knew well what it would take To free us all from sin and grave A perfect man would have to die And only He could pay that price [Chorus] Friday's good 'cause Sunday is comin' Don't lose hope, 'cause Sunday is comin' Devil, you're done, you better start runnin' Friday's good 'cause Sunday is comin' [Verse 3] So, He let those soldiers take Him in As His friend betrayed Him with a kiss There before the mocking crowd Like a Lamb to the slaughter, didn't make a sound [Verse 4] Then He carried that cross to Calvary And He shed His blood to set us free As the nails went in and the sky went dark The redemption of the world was on His heart [Chorus] Friday's good 'cause Sunday is comin' Don't lose hope, 'cause Sunday is comin' Devil, you're done, you better start runnin' Friday's good 'cause Sunday is comin' [Bridge] Then He breathed His last and bowed His head The Son of God and Man was dead With bloody hands, tears on their face They laid Him down inside that grave [Interlude] But that wasn't the end That wasn't the end That wasn't the end Let me tell you what happened next [Verse 5] The women came before the dawn To find that stone already gone When they looked inside, the angel said "Why you lookin' for the livin' among the dead?" [Refrain] He's alive, He's alive Hallelujah, He's alive Give Him praise, lift Him high Hallelujah, He's alive He's alive, He's alive Hallelujah, He's alive Give Him praise, lift Him high Hallelujah, He's alive Hallelujah, hallelujah Don't lose hope 'cause Sunday is comin' Hallelujah, hallelujah [Outro] Now Jesus reigns upon the throne All Heaven sings to Him alone We watch and wait, like a bride for a groom Oh, church arise, He's coming soon
