[Verse 1 - hushed, almost spoken]
I was dead on the road, I was cold as the stone
No pulse in the faith, no will of my own
I couldn't reach up and I couldn't decide
(mmm) there was no spark of wanting left alive

[Verse 2 - hushed, building]
They told me to choose, they told me to try
To open a door that was sealed from inside
But a dead man can't answer an offer or call
Ohh-ee-ah… I had no hand to lift at all

[Chorus - EXPLOSIVE, Full Cry]
Then He SPOKE, and the grave came undone
AAAH-ee-yah, Lazarus, come, and the dead man could run
Not an offer, not a deal, not a plea at the door
Oh-ee-OH-ee, He called me by name and I lived once more

[Verse 3 - hushed, building]
It wasn't my reaching, it wasn't my prayer
It was Life itself walking into the air
The Voice that made light say let there be sight
Ohh-ee-ah… and the application layer came alive that night

[Chorus - EXPLOSIVE, Full Cry]
Then He SPOKE, and the grave came undone
AAAH-ee-yah, Lazarus, come, and the dead man could run
Not an offer, not a deal, not a plea at the door
Oh-ee-OH-ee, He called me by name and I lived once more

[Bridge - Driving]
Effectual, effectual, eh-eh-eh, the call that does
What no invitation ever does
He doesn't ask the dead to rise
Aaah-YEH-ohh, He raises them, He opens eyes

[Final Chorus - Widest]
So He SPOKE, and the grave came undone
AAAH-ee-yah, dead man, come, and the cold could run
Not because I wanted, not because I tried
Oh-ee-OH-ee, He called me by name and the man came ALIVE

[Extended Outro - Keening]
He called me by name… oh-ee-ah…
Lazarus, come… aaah-YEH-ohh…
And the dead man came alive… came alive…
