Stenson, Mark © 1992 Willing Captive

A                       Em 
Early that morning they met on the road
     G           D            A   
With spices they carried that day
A                    Em 
Sorrow was heavy and grief was their load
    G             D      A
Who will roll the stone away?

	G      C      A                   D               D/C# D/C D/A 
	He is alive!  Why look ye for the living with the dead?
        G      C      A                  D       D/C# D/C D/A
	He is alive!  Don't you remember what He said?
	G      C      A                           D
	He is alive!  Come see the place where He was laid.

Come, Peter, Come John, Hear the news that we bring,
We're telling you just like we heard
When I think about it I can't help but sing (shout it)
'Cause Jesus is true to His word

	He is alive!  He goes before you to Galilee
	He is alive!  He came to set the captives free!
	He is alive!  And in Him you have liberty!

Two sad disciples were going their way
With nary a word to be said
Haven't you heard what has happened these days?
The one we had followed is dead.

	He is alive!  The stranger awakens the sleeping hearts.
	He is alive!  The power of death has been blown apart.
	He is alive!  Didn't His words burn in our hearts?

	He is alive!  Why look ye for the living with the dead?
	He is alive!  Don't you remember what He said
	He is alive!  He came to set the captives free!
	He is alive!  And in Him you have liberty!
	He is alive!  The power of death has been blown apart!
	He is alive!  The power of death has been blown apart!

G      C         A         D      C      Dsus  D C9 G
He is alive!  He is alive! He is alive!  He is alive!
