High Noon

High Noon

High noon in the valley of the shadow

When the deep of the valley was bright

When the mouth of the tomb

Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"

So long, you wages of sin

Go on, don't you come back again

I've been raised and redeemed

You've lost all your sting

To the victor of the battle

At high noon in the valley

In the valley of the shadow

Now the demons, they danced in the darkness

When that last ragged breath left his lungs

And they reveled and howled

At the war that they thought they had won

But then, in the dark of the grave

The stone rolled away

In the still of the dawn on the greatest of days

High noon in the valley of the shadow

When the shadows were shot through with light

When Jesus took in that breath

And shattered all Death with his life

So long, you wages of sin

Go on, don't you come back again

I've been raised and redeemed

You've lost all your sting

To the victor of the battle

High noon in the valley of the shadow

Let the people rejoice

Let the heavens resound

Let the name of Jesus, who sought us

And freed us forever ring out

All praise to the fighter of the night

Who rides on the light

Whose gun is the grace of the God of the sky

High noon in the valley of the shadow

When the shadows were shot through with light

When the mouth of the tomb

Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"

So long, you wages of sin

I said go on, don't you come back again

I've been raised and redeemed

All praise to the king

The victor of the battle

High noon in the valley

In the valley of the shadow
