"Please come fast.
Lazarus is sick and without your help
He will not last."
Mary and Martha
Watched their brother die
They waited for Jesus
He did not come
And they wondered why
The death watch was over
Buried four days
Then 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 yours or mine
And isn't it great
When He's four days late
He's still on time
Jesus said, "Martha,
Show me the grave."
But she said, "Lord, you don't understand
He's been there four days."
The grave stone was rolled back
Then Jesus cried,
"Lazarus come forth!"
Then somebody said
"He's alive! He's alive!"
You may be fighting
A battle of fear
You've cried to the Lord, "I need you now."
But He has not appeared
Friend, don't be discouraged
Cause He's still the same
He'll soon be here
He'll roll back the stone
And He'll call out your name!
When He's 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 yours or mine
And isn't it great
When He's four days late
He's still on time
Oh, my God is great!
When He's four days late
He's still on time!
