I do not know where they have laid Him

lyricist: Howard Higashi
Composer: Howard Higashi

I do not know where they have laid Him.

The stone is taken away from the tomb.

Oh! They have taken Him away!

Oh! Where is He?

Disciples came and saw the empty tomb

But went away so soon to their own homes.

They’re satisfied with just the facts.

But where’s my Lord?

Where is He

my Jesus?

Where is He

my Beloved?

Where is He Whom my soul doth love?

Jesus

my Love

I just want You.

My heart is broken from my deepest need.

Don’t ask me

angels

why I’m weeping.

Nothing but Jesus fills my inner being.

Oh! Where’s my Love?

Someone is standing right behind me.

It’s just the gardener I can barely see.

Sir

if you carried Him away...

Oh! Where is He?

Where is He my Jesus?

Where is He my Beloved?

Tell me where you have laid Him

And I’ll carry Him away

I’ll carry Him away.

And then I heard a voice say

“Mary.”

That sweetest voice that penetrated me.

It is the voice of my Beloved

Jesus

my Love.

I have found my Jesus!

I have found my Beloved!

I have found Whom my soul doth love

Jesus

my love

I just love You!

But Jesus told me not to touch Him yet.

He must ascend first to the Father

And to My Father and your Father

To My God and your God.

Go and tell My brothers

I ascend to the Father

To My Father and your Father

And My God and your God

go tell My brothers.
