Lazarus Lyrics

In the place where hope was damned A plea was sent to call on Him

The one you love is sick, they cried But Jesus knew he wouldn't die

He is the life, the truth, the way In Him our fears are washed away

From death to life His power we see In Jesus' name we are set free

Two days He stayed, no haste to go A greater plan His love would show

Our friend now sleeps, He softly said But I will wake him from the dead

Let's go to Him, though danger waits Faith will rise, the dead shall wake

Martha said, Lord, if you had been near My brother would still be here

But even now I trust your name Your power and promise never change

He is the life, the truth, the way In Him our fears are washed away

From death to life His power we see In Jesus' name we are set free

Mary knelt her heart in despair Lord, if you'd come He'd still be there

His spirit moved a love so strong Jesus wept

All the stone was Jesus' cry Though Lazarus lay where dead men lie

Martha said, Lord, the time is gone But He declared, God's glory shines on

He is the life, the truth, the way In Him our fears are washed away

From death to life His power we see In Jesus' name we are set free

Jesus prayed, His eyes raised high Father, I thank you, hear my cry

This is so they'll know your name And believe in the one you sent to reign

Out of the tomb the dead men came Bound in grave clothes yet called by name

Life restored by the Savior's might Death defeated in glorious light

Lazarus, come out, he cried The grave could not keep him inside

Bound in cloth he walked anew Proof of what God's power can do

He is the life, the truth, the way In Him our fears are washed away

From death to life His power we see In Jesus' name we are set free

The Passover neared, the whispers grew But Jesus knew what He must do

The crowd was amazed, they couldn't believe Many saw and chose to receive

But some went to the Pharisees And plotted how to bring Him to His knees

He called us out from death to life A promise made to end our strife

Now we believe our hearts make whole In Jesus' name we're saved and full

In Jesus' name we're saved and full

In Jesus' name we're saved and full
