Three nails couldn't hold that light. Death couldn't win that holy fight. From the darkest road to the brightest day...

Some say He was only a man that day... But three nails couldn't make His love go away. Born in a manger where the night stayed still, Underneath the stars on a Bethlehem hill. No crown on His head, no palace, no throne, Just a humble beginning, but He wasn't alone. Walked dusty roads with the poor and the weak, Gave hope to the broken, gave strength to the meek. He spoke about mercy, forgiveness, and grace, And love for the lost with a tear on His face. Some followed His footsteps, some called Him a liar, Some wanted a king with a sword and a fire. But He never came riding to conquer by force, He carried compassion and stayed on His course. Then the night grew dark and the cold wind blew, The ones who had followed didn't know what to do. The road led onward, though the price had been paid, Three nails in a cross and a debt that was made. Three nails and an empty grave, Love was the price that He came to save. They laid Him down where the cold stone stayed, But morning came and the stone rolled away. Three nails couldn't hold that light, Death couldn't win that holy fight. From the darkest road to the brightest day, Three nails and an empty grave. Early that morning when the sky turned gray, Some women walked where the body once lay. Carrying sorrow with every step, Wondering how they could face what was left. But the stone wasn't closed like it had been before, The grave stood open, empty at the door. No body inside, no silence remained, Just a message of hope where the darkness had reigned. He had told them the truth, but they couldn't believe, Now the empty grave gave them reason to see. What looked like the ending was only the start, A risen Savior bringing life to the heart. So when your road gets lonely and your faith gets low, When you can't see the way and don't know where to go, Remember that morning when the stone rolled away, The darkest of nights couldn't conquer the day. Three nails and an empty grave, Love was the price that He came to save. They laid Him down where the cold stone stayed, But morning came and the stone rolled away. Three nails couldn't hold that light, Death couldn't win that holy fight. From the darkest road to the brightest day, Three nails and an empty grave. From the hill of sorrow to the morning sun, The story wasn't over when the night had begun. Where the world saw endings, Heaven made a way, And the stone that sealed the darkness couldn't hold back the day. Three nails and an empty grave, Love was the price that He came to save. The cross stood silent beneath the morning rays, And hope came walking through the dawn of day. Three nails couldn't hold that light, Death couldn't win that holy fight. From the darkest road to the brightest day, Three nails and an empty grave. Three nails, One empty grave, And a love that still remains.
