Don't Put Flowers On My Grave

They came to the place where the Savior lay
To bring spices for his body soon to decay
But they found the tomb was empty, much to their surprise
Then Jesus spoke and opened up their eyes

Don't put flowers on my grave because I'm no longer there
Death has been defeated, new life is in the air
Go and tell all your brothers [I will tell everybody]
And don't you despair [my testimony share]
Don't put flowers on my grave because I'm no longer there

I once was in the grave of sorrow and shame
Dead in my sins, living my life in vain
Jesus raised me from death, to a new life for sure
Praise the Lord! That grave is empty, I'm not there anymore

My friend, if your sins have left you still in your grave
There is power in the blood for the life that he gave
Just repent, and believe, the host of heaven will ring
From death to everlasting life, so you too can sing
