From death reclaimed, brought from the pit
balancing the scales, the ledgers
the sin, our death, reversed, its weight balanced
by the gift of grace revealed,
the cross, the tomb, the ascension
made right, made whole, rising
the debt wiped clean, grace revealed
in the sacrifice, yes,
in the morning; glorious
