Grave Robber by Petra
written by Bob Hartman
Bm G7
There's a step that we all take alone
A Gbsus Gb
An appointment we have with the great unknown.
Bm G7
Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass,
A C#sus C#
Like the flower that fades, like the withering grass.
Bm G7
But life seems so long and death so complete,
A Gbsus Gb
And the grave an impossible portion to cheat.
Bm G7
But there's one who has been there and still lives to tell.
A C#sus C#
There is one who has been through both heaven and hell.
F#m F#m7 B7
And the grave will come up empty-handed that day -
D E
Jesus will come and steal us away!


CHORUS
A E
Where is the sting? Tell me where is the bite?
F#m E
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night.
A E
Where is the victory? Where is the prize?
F#m D E Bm
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally dies.
Bm G7
Many still mourn, many still weep
A Gbsus Gb
For those that they love who have fallen asleep.
Bm G7
But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache:
A Gbsus Gb
Just one shout from above and they all will awake.
F#m F#m7 B7
And in the reunion of joy we will see,
D E
Death will be swallowed in sweet victory!


CHORUS


BRIDGE
F#m G D A
When the last enemy is gone, From the dust will come a song.
F#m G D E
Those asleep will be awakened. Not a one will be forsaken.
F#m G D A
He shall wipe away our tears. He will steal away our fears.
F#m G D E
There will be no sad tomorrow. There will be no pain or sorrow.


CHORUS
