Three days late

Tears fall down,
Angels gather round.
Watching thier Lord hang upon a tree.
Given His life for you and me.
Hear the thunder crack;
God turns His back.
How could someone watch their son die,
For one such as I?
What sacrifice,
Like fire and ice.
Cold as death, but hot as hell.
A handfull of change down the wishing well.
Three days in the tomb,
Not too much room.
Playing high stakes with the D-Man
Checking the cards in his hand.
Aces over Jacks,
Deck was stacked,
Still He won the pot,
Took the Devil for all he's got.
Took the key, set us free.
Gave hope to a hopeless man like me.
Aces over Jacks,
Imagine that.
Son of the King
Against a Jokers rebellion.
The thugs of Hell,
Against the armies of Heaven.
Perfect love
Against endless hate.
Devil you thought you won,
But you were three days late.
