Lazarus - I'm Glad It's You

Wandered deserts striking stones

Sweat our blood in the olive groves

Now two whole years with no reply

Should we give sacrifice a try?

Still don’t know where I went wrong

Our pale horses riding all day long

And i can’t tell where you went

Or who it was that really left

But when I pass those stained glass halls

I find you you filling up my head again

With Easter Sunday sacraments

When I was just a kid

Playing games and pulling tricks out of our sleeves

But I can’t tell if we’re talking

You’re the same voice that I hear inside of me

When I’m too tired to think

Like a lamp light through the window in a starless sky

I never thought of you

As something I could lose

The spirit and the bride

The love of all my life

A family gathered where you lay

We laid our hands upon and prayed

Until they pulled me from my knees

And said «It's time for you to leave»

But I know the wonder working Lord

And I heard He’s raising from the dead again

The stories about Lazarus

Might be more than make believe

My lord is faithful

Please take your hands off me

Now I don’t hear you talking

No more comfort in the stories that I read

And I’m out of thoughts to think

The second coming saviour running late this time

And now I think I see what Lazarus taught me

The way he must’ve been surprised

The second time he died
