Mary, Don't You Weep

I came before the sun could rise

With oils and linen in my arms

But the stone was moved, the tomb was bare

And I fell apart in the garden's calm

Where did they take Him, where did He go

I need to hold Him one more time

The world without His voice in it

Is a world I don't know how to find

A stranger standing near the trees

Asked me why these tears won't end

I thought perhaps the gardener knew

Where they had laid my dearest friend

Sir, if you carried Him away

Please tell me where you set Him down

I'll take Him back, I'll bear the weight

Just point me to the sacred ground

I just want to find Him

I just want to see His face

The world is spinning without Him

And nothing is in its place

I came to anoint the body

But the body isn't here

Someone tell me where my Lord has gone

Someone dry these tears

Mary

You know My voice, you always did

Before the world could comprehend

I called your name because I promised

This would never be the end

Don't cling to Me, not yet, not now

There's still a road I need to climb

But carry this truth to all who grieve

I am alive for all of time

Rabboni! Teacher! It's really You

Go tell the others what you've seen

They won't believe the words I speak

They will-because you've walked with Me

And love is stronger than the grave

And morning always follows night

I thought I'd lost You forever

I told you I would bring the light

She finally found Him

She finally saw His face

The world stopped spinning for a moment

And everything fell into place

She came to anoint the body

But the body wasn't there

He was standing in the garden

Alive and breathing morning air

Rabboni... You're alive
