Lyrics

My good friend Paul was lying in the back seat of a station wagon
Headed to New Mexico
Somewhere in the middle of the night the driver fell asleep
And hit the wall beside the road

My friend went through the window like a bullet through the glass
Dead before he ever hit the ground

Oh I believe
Though it's hard sometimes
You are the resurrection and the life

Jody is a queen reigning prone upon a couch
For the past few years of numbered days
Because the virus in her body and the cancer in her brain
Are buying up the real estate

The medicine they gave her trades nightmares for her dreams
Of memories too tragic to describe

Oh I believe
Though it's hard sometimes
You are the resurrection and the life

I know the words of life to come are true
But sometimes they feel like salt upon the wound
When I'm asking in these moments where are You
Where are You?

Oh I believe
Though it's hard sometimes
You are the resurrection and the life

Sometimes it's like Lazarus, You come to roll the stone away
And watch him walk back out alive
Sometimes it's like my good friend Paul, breathless on the interstate
Mother weeping at his side

Either way it's something I will never understand
But I trust enough to take You at Your word

Oh I believe
Though it's hard sometimes
You are the resurrection and the life
