In this powerful anthem, Kari Jobe poignantly captures the essence of Christian faith, focusing on the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The lyrics recount the somber moments of Jesus's death, depicting the cosmic sorrow through imagery like "The moon and stars they wept" and "The morning sun was dead." As Jesus's body is laid in darkness, a profound struggle against death ensues. However, victory is achieved as "the ground began to shake" and "the stone was rolled away," symbolizing His resurrection. The song celebrates this triumph over death with repeated declarations that Christ is alive forevermore. The chorus emphasizes eternal glorification, lifting high the resurrected King who has overcome sin and death. The recurring refrain of “We sing Hallelujah” serves as a resounding proclamation of praise for the Lamb’s victory. Overall, it’s a stirring tribute to divine love and eternal life.
Forever
Lyrics
The moon and stars they wept
The morning sun was dead
The Savior of the world was fallen
His body on the cross
His blood poured out for us
The weight of every curse upon him
One final breath He gave
As Heaven looked away
The Son of God was laid in darkness
A battle in the grave
The war on death was waged
The power of hell forever broken
The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting
Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated
Forever, He is glorified
Forever, He is lifted high
Forever, He is risen
He is alive
He is alive
The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting
Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated
Forever, He is glorified
Forever, He is lifted high
Forever, He is risen
He is alive
He is alive
Forever, forever
You have overcome
Your resurrected King
You have overcome the grave
You have overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
We sing Hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
Forever, He is glorified
Forever, He is lifted high
Forever, He is risen
He is alive
He is alive (Forever)
Forever, He is glorified
Forever, He is lifted high
Forever, He is risen
He is alive
He is alive
