There's a step that we all take alone 
An appointment we have with the great unknown 
Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass 
Like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass 
But life seems so long and so complete 
And the grave an impossible potion to cheat 
But there's one who has been there and still lives to tell 
There is one who has been through both heaven and hell 
And the grave will come up empty-handed the day 
Jesus will come and steal us away 

[Chorus] 
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite 
When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night 
Where is the victory, where is the prize 
When the grave robber comes 
And death finally dies 

Many still mourn and many still weep 
For those that the love who have fallen asleep 
But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache 
Just one shout from above and they all will awake 
And in the reunion of joy we will see 
Death will be swallowed in sweet victory 

When the last enemy is done from the dust will come a song 
Those asleep will be awakened, not a one will be forsakened 
He shall wipe away our tears, he will steal away our fears 
There will be no sad tomorrow, there will be no pain and sorrow
