About the song
When I realized the intensity of how Jesus rose Lazarus from the grave and certain eternal sleep~~it made me realize also how He had beckoned MY soul to Him in the same way! He WANTS each and every one of us with the same intensity that He called Lazarus from that grave! WOW!!!!---What a Savior we have!!!!!
Lyrics
He was Your friend as You walked this earth.
He and sisters listened as You spoke of heavenly worth.
He died and was four days buried when You then came to Bethany.
You told all it was God's glory You carried, and it happened that they might believe.
You ordered them to roll the stone away.
You asked God to use You to prove;
That even four days there in the grave to lay,
Life could be brought back when You and God move!
God used You 'cause You were willing
To show love and actions that care.
God touched all who were seeing and listening
By His Might, through You, 'cause You dared!
You cried to his soul:
"Lazarus, Come Forth!
Loose him and let him go!"
All graves here on the earth
Would have opened if You had said so!
His soul then cried to You;
Jesus, come forth
Live in me, oh yes, I believe!
You have called me back to Your earth--
Your will I want to achieve!
Thought I had no friend as I walked this earth.
My sisters and I listened as Dad spoke of heavenly worth.
I was lost and for many years buried
When I then came to see the need.
You taught it was God's Glory you carried
And all happened that I might believe!
You touched others to help roll my shame away
Who asked God to use them to prove--
That even sins like mine, rotten and decayed;
Could be covered when You and God move!
God please help me to be willing
To show Your love in actions that care.
So You can touch all seeing and listening
By Your Might, through me--I will dare!
You cried to my soul:
Child, come forth!
Satan loose her and let her go.
You shined through others to me here on earth--
And You love EVERYONE, You love them so!
My soul now cries to You:
Jesus, come forth!
Live in me--Oh yes, I believe!
You have called me to work on Your earth--
Your will I want to achieve!
He and sisters listened as You spoke of heavenly worth.
He died and was four days buried when You then came to Bethany.
You told all it was God's glory You carried, and it happened that they might believe.
You ordered them to roll the stone away.
You asked God to use You to prove;
That even four days there in the grave to lay,
Life could be brought back when You and God move!
God used You 'cause You were willing
To show love and actions that care.
God touched all who were seeing and listening
By His Might, through You, 'cause You dared!
You cried to his soul:
"Lazarus, Come Forth!
Loose him and let him go!"
All graves here on the earth
Would have opened if You had said so!
His soul then cried to You;
Jesus, come forth
Live in me, oh yes, I believe!
You have called me back to Your earth--
Your will I want to achieve!
Thought I had no friend as I walked this earth.
My sisters and I listened as Dad spoke of heavenly worth.
I was lost and for many years buried
When I then came to see the need.
You taught it was God's Glory you carried
And all happened that I might believe!
You touched others to help roll my shame away
Who asked God to use them to prove--
That even sins like mine, rotten and decayed;
Could be covered when You and God move!
God please help me to be willing
To show Your love in actions that care.
So You can touch all seeing and listening
By Your Might, through me--I will dare!
You cried to my soul:

And You love EVERYONE, You love them so!
My soul now cries to You:
