The plans have all been laid
The prayers have all been prayed
The silver has been paid
And the kiss has betrayed
The lies have all been told
The rooster has three times crowed
The hands were washed from sin
The crowd chooses to condemn
Life goes on
And the river rolls on
And the world still spins around
And the sun comes up in the morning
The hammer has been swung
The nails have all been done
The blood has fallen down
And spilt upon the ground
The sinless one lies dead
The thorns upon His head
Blackness fills the sky
Turning day into night
Life goes on
And the river rolls on
And the world still spins around
And the sun comes up in the morning
The curtain has been torn
The mother kneels and mourns
Her son lies in the tomb
The soldiers guard His room
But the rolling stone has rolled
And death could not keep hold
The one who shed His blood
Takes back His life again
Life goes on
And the river rolls on
And the world still spins around
And the sun comes up in the morning
Life goes on
And the river rolls on
And the world still spins around
And the sun comes up in the morning
