Verse 1

A great light dawns in Galilee
Some say madman some say king
Wonder working rebel priest
Jesus Christ the Nazarene

Verse 2

He knew well what it would take
To free us all from sin and grave
A perfect man would have to die
And only He could pay that price

Chorus

Friday's good cause Sunday
is coming
Don't lose hope cause Sunday
is coming
Devil you're done you better
start running
Friday's good cause Sunday
is coming

Interlude

Verse 3

So He let those soldiers
take Him in
As His friend betrayed Him
with a kiss
There before the mocking crowd
Like a lamb to the slaughter
didn't make a sound

Verse 4

Then He carried that cross
to Calvary
And He shed His blood to
set us free
As the nails went in and the
sky went dark
The redemption of the world
was on His heart

Chorus

Friday's good cause Sunday
is coming
Don't lose hope cause Sunday
is coming
Devil you're done you better
start running
Friday's good cause Sunday
is coming

Interlude 2

Bridge

Then He breathed His last
And bowed His head
The Son of God
And man was dead
With bloody hands
Tears on their face
They laid Him down
Inside that grave
That wasn't the end
That wasn't the end
That wasn't the end
Let me tell you what happened next

Verse 5

The women came before the dawn
To find that stone already gone
When they looked inside
the angels said
Why you looking for the
living among the dead

Refrain

He's alive, He's alive
Hallelujah He's alive
Give Him praise, lift Him high
Hallelujah He's alive
He's alive, He's alive
Hallelujah He's alive
Give Him praise, lift Him high
Hallelujah He's alive

Instrumental

Bridge 2

Now Jesus reigns
Upon the throne
All heaven sings
To Him alone
We watch and wait
Like a bride for a groom
Oh church arise
He's coming soon

Sunday Is Coming - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

Sunday is Coming is a powerful song that reminds us of the incredible sacrifice Jesus made for us. He willingly gave His life so that we could be free from sin and death. The lyrics of this song bring to life the events of Good Friday and Easter Sunday. 

The song begins with a reminder of Jesus’s humble beginnings in Galilee. He was seen as a madman and a king, a wonder-working rebel priest. He knew that the only way to free us from sin and death was for a perfect man to die. He was willing to pay the ultimate price for us. 

The chorus of the song reminds us that Friday is good because Sunday is coming. We can have hope because Jesus is coming. The devil is done and he should start running. 

The verses of the song tell the story of Jesus’s death on the cross. He was betrayed by a friend, mocked by a crowd, and nailed to the cross. He shed His blood to set us free. 

The bridge of the song reminds us that Jesus’s death was not the end. He was laid in the grave, but He rose again. The women came to the tomb to find the stone already gone. The angels said, “Why are you looking for the living among the dead?” 

The refrain of the song is a powerful reminder that Jesus is alive. We can give Him praise and lift Him high. He is alive and He is coming soon. 

The Bible tells us that Jesus’s death and resurrection was the ultimate sacrifice for us. Romans 5:8 says, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Jesus willingly gave His life so that we could be free from sin and death. 

We can have hope because Sunday is coming. Jesus is coming soon and He will make all things new. We can have hope because Jesus is alive and He is coming soon. 

Let us remember the incredible sacrifice Jesus made for us and have hope that Sunday is coming.
