Rise Lazarus

Chorus

Hey, Lazarus lying in the shadows

Held by the silence, heavy and low

Hope is waiting at your door

Time halted, hearts on the floor

Drop

Rise up now

Come alive

Light breaks through

You're not alone

Verse 2

Sisters crying, voices calling out

Martha and Mary, touched by doubt

Days grow colder, faith wears thin

But a promise burns deep within

Pre-Chorus

In the quiet fear tries to drown

But help is coming to this town

Chorus

Hey, Lazarus lying in the shadows

Held by the silence, heavy and low

Hope is waiting at your door

Time halted, hearts on the floor

Drop

Rise up now

Come alive

Light breaks through

You're not alone

Outro

Four days gone, hearts holding tight

Martha’s hope meets the morning light

Questions rise, but the answers burn

A voice calls promise, worlds return

He said, I am the life and resurrection

Trust in me, faith’s direction

Death defeated, new breath begun

Believe in love, the victory won

Drop

Awake now

Step outside

Never gone

You will rise

He said, I am the resurrection

I am the life

He said, I am the resurrection

I am the life

Bridge

Mary at his feet, tears on the ground

Loss and longing circle around

Eyes breaking, pain on display

Why did he have to go away?

Verse 3

The crowd is watching sorrow unfold

Questions hang heavy, the story retold

Jesus moved, heart open wide

A love that no hurt can hide

Chorus

Hey, Lazarus lying in the shadows

Held by the silence, heavy and low

Hope is waiting at your door

Time halted, hearts on the floor

Drop

Tears fall down

He weeps for us

Love speaks loud

Even in loss

Outro 2

Where did they lay him? Show me the place

Love walks the journey, enters the ache

He shares our pain, he's by our side

Sorrow and hope can both reside

Drop

Hearts awake

Grief and grace

See his love

Feel his embrace

He said, I am the resurrection

I am the life

Bridge

Mary at his feet, tears on the ground

Loss and longing circle around

Eyes breaking, pain on display

Why did he have to go away?

Verse 3

The crowd is watching sorrow unfold

Questions hang heavy, the story retold

Jesus moved, he even cried

A love that no hurt can hide

Verse 6

Council is meeting under cold stone walls

Whispers of danger, suspicion calls

Miracles witnessed, their grip starts to fade

Fear in their eyes for the power he made

Pre-Chorus

Low voices argue in rooms out of sight

Worried hearts racing deep in the night

Chorus

What will we do with the truth in our hands

One man changes all they understand

Fears of losing everything they've known

Still can't stop what love has shown

Drop

Silent plots

Heavy doors

Rumors fly

Hearts at war

Outro 5

Decision made with trembling breath

Better one should face the threat

All their plans and all their might

Still can't smother what shines inside

Drop

Shadowed rooms

Choose their fate

Love persists

Through the hate

Verse 7

Candlelight flickers, secrets entwined

Counting the risks they try to outrun time

Authority trembling, futures at stake

Desperate decisions in darkness they make

Pre-Chorus

Chosen in whispers, the words hang so cold

A cost for the many, a fate taking hold

Chorus

Lines have been drawn in shadows and stone

Trading compassion for safety alone

One must fall so the rest remain

Love steps forward through struggle and pain

Drop

Plans divide

Hearts collide

Prophecy

Can't be denied

Outro 6

From scattered children to distant lands

Gathered in promise, hope expands

Though plotting fear grips the night

His purpose burns, still shining bright
