Song Lyrics


Bring Lazarus Back
by Mark Bishop

Album: There Is Love...Then There Is His Love


Mary and Martha sent word to the Lord.
"Our brother is dying," they said.
And in a few days when Jesus arrived,
Mary and Martha said, "Lazarus is dead."

When Jesus had heard, He tarried two days,
Then four days, before He arrived.
"Oh Lord, if only you'd been here before,
We know our brother would still be alive."

The Savior was burdened for their broken hearts.
The Bible says Jesus then,"wept."
"I'll show you Gods power if you'll lead the way."
They rolled back the stone from where Lazarus slept.

The people who gathered were surely amazed...
For standing there in his grave's clothes,
They might forget the day Lazarus died,
But they won't forget the day Lazarus rose.

Chorus
"Brothers and sisters please listen to me.
There's more to life than what these eyes can see.
Our brother we love has a heavenly home,
There's nothing he needs now or lacks.
I didn't cry because Lazarus died.
I cried when I had to bring Lazarus back."

One day like Lazarus, we too shall die,
Our friends and our loved ones will grieve.
Someday when we reach our heavenly home,
We'll know exactly what Lazarus had to leave.
