I got the news about a friend today
She is survived by her kids
She was angry
She was old
All I could think about was her soul
And I know looking down and amongst His stead
That Jesus wept
Into the tomb where Lazarus lay
He was survived by his kin
He (Jesus) knew the answer
All was as planned
Still, on that day, God was a man
And I know looking down and amongst His stead
That Jesus wept
The foxes have holes
And the birds have their nests
The Son of Man has nowhere
To lay His head
The kings have their queens
And creation it seems
To worship You almost
As instinct
How long, O?
Will You forget me forever? (Forever?)
How long?
How long?
How come at this?
I cannot see?
I take Your Word
For it
And I know looking down and amongst His stead
That Jesus wept
And I know looking down and up at His head
Martha and Mary wept
And I know when I'm up looking at His face
All my tears will belong to a different place
