Passion's song 'Grave Robber' celebrates the transformative power of Jesus' resurrection. The lyrics describe a personal testimony of moving from a life of rebellion and feeling unsaved to being 'stolen' by Christ, who lifts from rock bottom, washes away sin, and brings spiritual life. It extends an invitation to those who feel beyond hope, assuring them that Jesus can open their eyes and save them. The repeated imagery of rolling away stones and being forgiven underscores the message of grace and new life found in Christ.

I used to live like a rebel
Didn't wanna behave
Thought a wretch like me couldn't ever be saved
But everything changed, I remember the day
When I heard Him calling my name
Like a thief in the night
He snuck in, took my life
I was dead now I'm alive and singing
I got stolen by the grave robber
Picked me up from that rock bottom
Washed my soul in that Holy water
Brought me back to life
One more stone rolled away
One more sinner been saved by grace
This dead man, he ain't dead no longer
All because of that grave robber
Maybe you're the one thinking
That you'll never be right
Even though your momma praying for you every night
Praying Jesus gonna find you and open your eyes
Well maybe right now's that time
Like a thief in the night
He'll sneak in, take your life
That resurrection gonna have you singing
I got stolen by the grave robber
Picked me up from that rock bottom
Washed my soul in that Holy water
Brought me back to life
One more stone rolled away
One more sinner been saved by grace
This dead man, he ain't dead no longer
All because of that grave robber
Taking my sin, taking my shame
Breaking my soul out of these chains
I'm a dead man living
And God did it
Taking my sin, taking my shame
Breaking my soul out of these chains
I've been forgiven
And God did it
I got stolen by the grave robber
Picked me up from that rock bottom
Washed my soul in that Holy water
Brought me back to life
I got stolen by the grave robber
Picked me up from that rock bottom
Washed my soul in that Holy water
Brought me back to life
One more stone rolled away
One more sinner been saved by grace
This dead man, he ain't dead no longer
All because of that grave robber
Jesus is the rock and he rolls my grave away
All because of that grave robber
Jesus is the rock and he rolls my grave away
All because of that grave robber
