Jesus Wept

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I found my masterpiece in a discount bin I pound against the wall of my aging skin Crying, "Let me out" "Let me out" [Verse 2] Who'll untie the ropes that restrain my wings? Help me understand when death still stings I'm crying, "Let me out" You're saying, "No, not yet" Before he danced Jesus wept [Verse 3] I'm living in the ache of missing you Sealed in this Lazarus grave With nothing else to do But cry "Let me out" "Let me out" [Verse 4] Another bad guy wins More good friends die They mounted up like eagles Now they're dropping like flies I cry "Let me out" You're saying "No, not yet" Before he danced Jesus wept [Bridge] Before the latter rain Jesus wept Before the healing came Jesus wept Before he paid in full every debt Jesus wept [Verse 5] There's not a holy man Who doesn't know grief well Or think the road to heaven Doesn't pass through hell They've cried "Let me out" They've heard "No, not yet" They know before he danced Jesus wept [Chorus] (Before the latter rain) (Before the healing came) Jesus wept (Before the latter rain) (Before the healing came) He cried, "It is finished" now (Before the latter rain) (Before the healing came) He cried "It is finished" now (Before the latter rain) (Before the healing came)
