Jesus wept! those tears are over
But His heart is still the same;
Kinsman
friend
and elder brother
Is His everlasting name.
Savior
who can love like Thee
Gracious One of Bethany?
When the pangs of trial seize us
When the waves of sorrow roll
I will lay my head on Jesus
Refuge of the troubled soul.
Surely
none can feel like Thee
Weeping One of Bethany!
Jesus wept! and still in glory
He can mark each mourner’s tear;
Loving to retrace the story
Of the hearts He solaced here.
Lord
when I am called to die
Let me think of Bethany.
Jesus wept! that tear of sorrow
Is a legacy of love;
Yesterday
today
tomorrow
He the same doth ever prove
Thou art all in all to me
Loving One of Bethany!
