In this life upon the earth
many an enemy we must meet
some are big and others small
but there’s one we cannot beat
This ultimate enemy is death
that holds us all in it’s prey
we hate to even think upon it
but one day it will have it’s say
This will cause our final breath
then we will be no more
our life on earth will be finished
never again here we will roar
But there’s one who has beaten death
Jesus Christ God’s only beloved son
after dying cruelly on the cross
three days later the victory was won
Having this Jesus as your savour
believing on His mercy to atone
means we can overcome death
never again to be left alone
Now we can see our final enemy
face to face in God’s perfect peace
knowing heaven’s house awaits us
time here is about to cease
