  • Ooh, yeah

    You said my fate was sealed
    You said my days were numbered
    Case closed with no appeal
    My future's six feet under
    Messing with my head in ghost fashion
    My heart was holding its breath (holding my breath)
    Terrified of taking my last one
    Oh Death, you scared me to death

    Whoa-oh-oh
    You ain't my King though
    Whoa-oh-oh
    Where did your sting go?

    Oh Death, I will not be afraid
    In the end you will lose
    I will dance on your grave
    With the One who buried you
    You ain't nothin' but a stone
    That my Savior rolled away
    Set you straight and set me free
    Oh Death (hey), you are dead to me
    Oh Death, you are dead to me

    (Hey)

    So my faith don't flinch at your wrath
    Devil, go on, get off of my shoulder (come on now)
    You thought you had the last laugh
    You thought this song was over

    Whoa-oh-oh
    You ain't my King though, no
    Whoa-oh-oh
    Where did your sting go?

    Oh Death, I will not be afraid
    In the end you will lose
    I will dance on your grave
    With the One who buried you
    You ain't nothin' but a stone
    That my Savior rolled away
    Set you straight and set me free
    Oh Death (hey), you are dead to me (ooh, ooh)
    Oh Death, you are dead to me

    (Come on)

    Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of you
    I know I'm just passing through, oh
    Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of you (oh Death)
    I know I'm just passing through

    Oh Death, I will not be afraid
    In the end you will lose
    I will dance on your grave
    With the One who buried you
    You ain't nothin' but a stone
    That my Savior rolled away
    Set you straight and set me free
    Oh Death, you are dead to me
    I will not be afraid
    In the end you will lose
    I will dance on your grave
    With the One who buried you
    You ain't nothin' but a stone
    That my Savior rolled away
    Set you straight and set me free
    Oh Death, you are dead to me

    Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of you
    I know I'm just passing through, oh (oh Death, you are dead to me)
    Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of you (yeah)
    I know I'm just passing through (oh Death, you are dead to me)
    (Yeah, though I walk) through the valley of the shadow of you
    (I know I'm just passing through) oh Death, you are dead to me Writer/s: Bart Millard, Ethan Hulse, Tedd Tjornhom, Walker Hayes
