We bury many things in our
lives
mistakenly left for dead,
Only for God to come along
and
give one or two new life.
We see ends that just aren’t
there,
must not be meant to be,
When God sees a chance
for glory
a heavenly sense revealed.
God sees our problems differently,
not the deaths we accept;
He's not interested in resuscitation,
only rebirths so glorious.
Before all who thought Him
mad,
Jesus called Lazarus¹ out,
And from his tomb the dead
arose
bound still in burial clothes.
Unbind my friend and set
him free,
Jesus did so command,
See the glory that is God's
alone,
over death His power shone.
John 11:1-46
¹Lazarus
is the Greek translation for
the Hebrew name Eleazar,
which
means 'God will help.' |
