The news came to Jesus, please come fast
Lazarus is sick and without you here, he will not last
Mary and Martha watched their brother die
They waited for Jesus, he did'nt come and they wondered why
The death watch was over, buried four days
Somebody said he'll soon be here, the Lord's on his way
Martha ran to him, and then she cried
Lord if you had been here, you could have healed him, he'd still be alive
But your four days late, and all hope is gone
Lord we don't understand, why you waited so long
But his way is god's way, not ou or mine, and isn't it great when he's four days late he's still on time
