[Verse 1]
          Dm               Bbmaj7
There's a step that we all take alone,
      Cadd9               C/B    Am     A
An appointment we have with the great unknown,
       Dm                       Bbmaj7
Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass,
         Cadd9          C/B          Am        A
Like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass,
    Dm                     Bbmaj7
But life seems so long and death so complete &
    Cadd9          C/B    Am       A
The grave an impossible portion to cheat,
    Dm                                Bbmaj7
But there is one who has been there & still lived to tell,
         Cadd9        C/B           Am       A
There is one who has been thru both Heaven & Hell,
        Am              Am/G#    Am/G        Am/F#
And the Grave will come up empty handed that day,
F                            G
Jesus will come and steal us away
 
[Chorus]
C                                             G/B
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
Am                                                    G
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night,
C                                         G/B
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
Am                                 F     G     Dm
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally dies
 
[Verse 2]
 Dm               Bbmaj7
Many still mourn, many still weep
   Cadd9               C/B  A
For those that they love who have fallen asleep,
   Dm                            Bbmaj7
But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache,
         Cadd9            C/B  A
Just one shout from above and they all will awake
    Am       Am/G#    Am/G        Am/F#
And in the reunion of Joy we will see,
F                                     G
Death will be swallowed in sweet Victory
 
[Chorus]
C                                             C/B  Am
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
Am                                                    G
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night,
C                                         C/B  Am
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
Am                                 F     G     Am
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally dies
 
[Bridge]
         G     Am             Bb                 F          G
When the last enemy is gone, from the dust will come a song,
Am             G   Am           Bb             F          G
Those asleep will Be awakened, not a one will be forsaken
Am            G   Am         Bb            F             G
He will wipe away our tears, He will steal away our fears
Am           G   Am            Bb               F              G
There will be no sad tomorrow, there will be no pain, no sorrow
 
[Chorus]
C                                  C/B  Am
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
Am                                                    G
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night,
C                                   C/B  Am
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
Am                                 F     G
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally
 
C                                             C/B  Am
Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite?
Am                                                    G
When the Grave Robber comes like a thief in the night,
C                                        C/B  Am
Where is the victory, where is the prize?
Am                                 F     G     C
When the Grave Robber comes and death finally dies
