What Are You Weeping For Lyrics

Couple days since it was done

Struck and killed the Holy One

Seemed to please most everyone

But all of His friends were broken and afraid

I heard somewhere bout nights of weeping

There's no peace, there's no sleeping

But the tomb the roman guards were keeping

Suddenly broke open – the stone was rolled away

What are you weeping for

Who are you looking for

Behold the risen Lord

He's alive he's alive and He's calling your name

He's calling your name

A couple shining men in there

Meet Mary in her worst despair

She can't find Him anywhere

I think they were smilin' – sayin' what ya doin' here

The situation just got worse

From such a point of view as hers

Where the body is she's just not sure

But then the gardener said (with a twinkle in his eye)

What are you weeping for

Who are you looking for

Behold the risen Lord

He's alive he's alive and He's calling your name

He's calling your name

So everything He said is true

What He has done and gonna do

It applies to me and you

When you believe in Him and you know that He's alive

So praise the Lord from heaven's heights

Sun and moon and stars of light

And in the morning when you rise

Death is defeated Jesus is alive

What are you weeping for

Who are you looking for

Behold the risen Lord

He's alive he's alive and He's calling your name

He's calling your name
