Lazarus Come Forth

Heartbroken tears falling
Martha found Jesus
She questioned
Why Lazarus had died
When she had thus spoken
Her doubts where then silenced
He walked toward the body and cried
Lazarus come forth
Awake like the morning
Arise with new hope
A new life is born
Lazarus come forth
From death now awaken
For Jesus has spoken
Death's chains have been broken
Lazarus come forth
The tomb was now empty
Martha stopped crying
Her brother now stood by her side
The pharasies wondered
About what had happened
How could one live, who had died?
The reason this story
Give hope to so many
Is although we know we must die
Our bodies won't stay there
In cold and dark silence
We'll here Jesus say from on high
Children come forth
Awake like the morning
Arise with new hope
A new life is born
Children come forth
From death now awaken
For Jesus has spoken
Death's chains have been broken
Children come forth
For Jesus has spoken
Death's chains have been broken
My children come forth
Children come forth
