Messiah Overcame
by Karen Peck & New River

Album: Lift His Name

The Earth shook in agony
The rock spilt in pain
The sky abandoned light
As the lamb of God was slain
Creation wept in sorrow
When the maker breathed his last
A sacrifice of love
To bridge the canyon sin had cast

But oh he is alive again
Hell is trampled, the battle is done

Messiah Overcame, defeated the grave
To Jesus our King, All glory and praise
Messiah overcame, The name above all names
He is risen indeed, Oh come and see
Messiah overcame

And though we were the villain's still, our hero paid the cost
The savior bruised and torn, chose to wear the sinners cross
He walked the road before us for Hell was in our path
He bore the wounds of sin and crushed by the weight of Holy wrath

Oh he is alive again
Death is swallowed, the victory won!

Messiah Overcame, defeated the grave
To Jesus our King, All glory and praise
Messiah overcame, The name above all names
He is risen indeed, Oh come and see
Messiah overcame

Hallelujah, What a savior
Hallelujah, what a King
Hallelujah, Sing forever
Hallelujah, what a King

He defeated the grave
To Jesus our King, All glory and praise
Messiah overcame, The name above all names
He is risen indeed, Oh come and see
Messiah overcame
