And the demons, they danced in the darknessby Andrew Peterson
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
Be gone, 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
Go here for the complete lyrics. I love the imagery in his words!

He's got to be one of the better Christian songwriters out there, his music ain't bad either... Another one of my favorites of his is Rise and Shine on the Carried along album. For all the blog faithful it is totally worth it to add to your Itunes. Check out the lyrics.
