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
It was high noon in the valley of the shadow
When the shadows were shot through with light
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 of high noon
In the valley, in the valley of the shadow
Let the people rejoice, let the Heaven's 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, at high noon
In the valley, in the valley of the shadow
In the valley of the shadow
Now it is finished, it is finished
