Jesus wept, Lazarus' soul was sleeping
So bereft, Mary fell on You just weeping
Faith resigned, sealed in the cave that he laid in
She opined, "If You were here, You could save him"
You appeared, giving life abundantly
Moved to tears as they cried, "Come and see"
Jesus wept, Martha was so demanding
As she kept doctrinal understanding
Four days passed, time is a veil from seeing
Glories vast, promised to those believing
And You'll endure all who claim You came too late
To ensure life out of death, You would wait
Jesus wept
Jesus wept, though He is resurrection
Some expect magical intervention
Blind men see, hungry are satisfied
Could it be Lazarus shouldn't have died?
And You'll forbear those who love with doubting breath
Since You care more for raising men from death
Jesus wept
Jesus wept
Jesus wept
Jesus wept
