Lord, You're weeping with me
Help me to believe
That when my heart, is heavy as a stone
You say I'm not alone
Man of sorrows, what a name
Bore our suffering, bore all of our pain
Man of sorrows, broken sinners to reclaim
Overcame the darkness, and walked out of the grave
Lord, You're aching with me
Help me to believe
That when my soul, is lost in the storm
You're acquainted with my grief
Man of sorrows, what a name
Bore our suffering, bore all of our pain
Man of sorrows, broken sinners to reclaim
Overcame the darkness, and walked out of the grave
He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for all our sins
And the punishment that brought us peace was laid on Him
He was stricken and afflicted
But God's mercy would reveal
What His suffering would bring us by His wounds we're healed
Man of sorrows, what a name
Bore our suffering, bore all of our pain
Man of sorrows, broken sinners to reclaim
Overcame the darkness, and walked out of the grave
You overcame my darkness, when You walked out of the grave...
