Lyrics:
I AM the RESURRECTION and the LIFE
he that believeth in ME
though he were dead
yet shall he live

a certain man had died
in the town of Bethany
and Lazarus
was his name

the Bible says he was
a man that JESUS loved
and his sisters, they
they thought it was a shame

you see, Mary and Martha longed
for JESUS’ Healing Touch
to come and raise their brother
cause they loved their boy so much

but JESUS had a plan
not known to any man
that would soon take away
their pain

they was waiting for JESUS to come and say
Lazarus, oh Lazarus
hey Lazarus, come forth

when he died he went to where
the saints of GOD did stay
in the holding place they lived
beyond the tomb

and there he saw Elijah, Moses, Samuel, even Ruth
and all the others jammed up in a room

he turned around and saw ol’ Gideon
standing by the door
h-he walked up, said h-hey brother, tell me, uh
w-what’s this group here for?

Giddie said, well alright
this is testimony night
h-have a seat Lazarus cause, uh
brother uh, the meeting is starting soon

when Mary and Martha just wanted to see their
Lazarus, oh Lazarus
when will their Lazarus come forth?

Moses shook his stick, said
now this meeting come to order (yes! yes, yes)

can I get a witness for the LORD tonight? (yes! yes!)

ol’ Abraham kicked it off, said
I, I want y’all to know that I knew him (ooh, ooh)

HE gave a child
to my barren wife (yes! LORD! yes LORD! yes!)

Isaac waved his hand, said hey daddy
daddy I knew HIM too (yes, huh!)

Jacob jumped up says, amen Grandpa
preach it

(yeah, yeah!) dignified Solomon adjusted his robe, said
“well I knew HIM too” (ooh, yes)
you see, HE made me so smart,
I started to teach it (yes)

Ezekiel said “I knew HIM as a Wheel Within a Wheel”
(wheel within a wheel? yes!)

Job said “man, HE healed me when I was almost dead”
(yes! there we go, come on!)

Samson said “I, I knew him when some Philistines tried to jump me”
(ow, yes!)
man, I took a donkey jawbone and I busted a few heads
(brother! good, man! ooh that’s nice!)

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego said
we knew HIM in the fiery furnace (yes!)

Jonah said “man, HE gave me a second chance”
(yes! yes! yes, yes)

Daniel cried out “hey I knew HIM in a hungry den of lions” (yes)
and the HOLY GHOST hit king David, he just started to dance
(yes! yes!)

Lazarus got so excited, he shouted “hey man”
“man, I knew HIM too”

Moses put down his stick said “oh”
“who’s the new kid?”

needless to say, the room got real quiet when Lazarus said
“but you see brothers, I knew HIM in a way that y’all never did”

you see man, I walked with HIM, I talked with HIM
I saw how HIS teachings awed the crowds
those famous Tears of Compassion, I could actually see

man, HE used to come over my house after church
my two sisters would make HIM dinner
every month, man, faithly, brother
I even supported HIS Ministry

man, I watched HIM confront the Pharisees
I was there when HE fed the five thousand
I heard the people gasp when HE would heal the lame

I, I, I even remember the littlest things
things most folks would just forget
like the simple loving way
HE would just call my name

up at the grave, stone rolled away
with a loud voice, JESUS starts to say

Lazarus
you see brothers, it just seemed like yesterday, can you hear that?
man, HE said my name, crazy huh? Wanna testify right n-

Lazarus
hehe, as a matter of a fact, hehe
it seems like today, I can hear HIM saying my name
as a matter of fact, hey

Lazarus
as a matter of fact, I, I think, I think I hear HIM calling me now
what?

Lazarus
JESUS?

Lazarus
JESUS?

Lazarus
JESUS?
Lazarus
JESUS?
Lazarus
JESUS!

come forth! (Lazarus)
come forth! (Lazarus)
I command you! (Lazarus)
come forth! (come forth)

JESUS said “Lazarus”! (Lazarus)
man, I heard HIM say “Lazarus”! (Lazarus)
I saw HIM say “Lazarus”! (Lazarus)
come forth! (come forth)

like HE was saying (Lazarus)
sickness, be healed!
mountain, be moved! (Lazarus)
when HE said “Lazarus, come forth!” (Lazarus, come forth)

Mary, don’t weep
Martha, don’t moan (Lazarus)

here come your boy (Lazarus)
coming forth (come forth)
