Prompt / Lyrics
Intro (Sparse piano – single notes, low register) (Long decay. Almost silence.) Four days… Stillness… Stone sealed… ⸻ Verse 1 (Low baritone – restrained, intimate) Lazarus was a good man From a house You loved too well Mary prayed through silent hours Martha listened for the bell They sent word down dusty roads Said, “Lord, the one You love is weak” But the sky stayed quiet longer And the grave learned how to speak ⸻ Pre-Chorus (Baritone rises – tension building) You could’ve stopped the dying You could’ve turned the tide But love stayed walking slowly While hope learned how to hide ⸻ Chorus (Clean vocal – wide, aching) Even the Lord wept Standing by the stone He knew the end was coming Still He felt what they’d known If Jesus cried beside the grave Then tears don’t mean we’ve lost our way Grief ain’t faithless, grief ain’t wrong Even the Lord wept along ⸻ Verse 2 (Baritone with grit – drums enter, restrained) Martha met You down the road Said, “Lord, if You’d been here” You spoke words of resurrection But her faith was trapped in fear Mary fell down at Your feet Couldn’t raise her broken eyes All the hope she ever carried Was buried with the lies ⸻ Pre-Chorus 2 (Half-growl → clean lift) You stood inside the silence Where death still claimed its throne And heaven held its breath Waiting on You alone ⸻ Chorus 2 (Full band – heavier, darker) Even the Lord wept Standing by the stone He knew the end was coming Still He felt what they’d known If Jesus cried beside the grave Then tears don’t mean we’ve lost our way Grief ain’t faithless, grief ain’t wrong Even the Lord wept along ⸻ Bridge (Breakdown – growl, slow, crushing) WHY DO YOU CRY? (pause) Because love was here. WHY DOES IT HURT? Because death is real. (Silence) JESUS… WEPT. ⸻ Bridge 2 (Clean vocal – exposed, emotional peak) They said, “Lord, the stone’s been sealed too long The smell is strong — it’s done” But You prayed like heaven was listening Like death had overstayed its run ⸻ Final Chorus (Massive swell – clean high range over crushing band) Even the Lord wept But He didn’t turn away Grief may stay the night awhile But mercy made a way If Jesus wept and still called life Out of a dark and borrowed time Then tears don’t cancel faith or song Even the Lord wept — But death was wrong ⸻ Outro (Instruments drop → piano + low whisper) Roll the stone… Say his name… (Final piano note rings)
