LAZARUS AND THE DEVIL song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

the Devil said to Lazarus
how do you walk my friend
how often must I kill you
before you reach the bitter end

said Lazarus to the Devil
when I am meant to die
the road will fall down to Hell
and I up to the sky

said the Devil back to Lazarus
I tell you it's just not fair
you can't expect to say to me
that God alone still cares

said Lazarus to the Devil
I guess that's how it goes
why must we play this same old
I guess God Himself only knows

he was dead but cannot die
spoke the truth he cannot lie
water into wine he drank the cup
to search for He who raised him up

so Lazarus raised his head
and asked up to the blue
am I ever gonna find my rest
am ever gonna find You

and as he cried all night
the Devil stood and laughed
and as the dawn was turning light
he said you don't know the half

the Father is a Joker
and I am but a Jack
and I'll tell you a secret
He aint never coming back

but Lazarus knew the truth
as the sun came up like fire
that Satan's always false
and the Devil is a liar

he was dead but cannot die
spoke the truth he cannot lie
water into wine he drank the cup
to search for He who raised him up
