Hi Michael,

I'm not sure of the line: Death lost the battle and Love(?) won the war

On the first day as darkness conquered light
There between two thieves; the spotless one
With a spear in His side and compassion in His eyes
His mission of love had just begun

The second day with a stone rolled in place
Angry soldiers guarded where He lay
Satan thought he had won; conquering God's only son
For the hope of all mankind lay in the grave

On that third day Jesus arose from the grave
Sin had been defeated on that hallelujah day
Death lost the battle and Love won the war
Forever it was settled, He is King and Lord of Lords

yes that's the line thanks
