Dallam: Oh, Mary don’t you weep

Dm                A7
Oh Mary, let the weeping flow
                  Dm
Oh Mary, let your mourning show
    Gm                    Dm
The Lord has heard you through the storm
A7                Dm
Oh Mary, weep and mourn


[Chorus]
Dm                 A7
Go on cry, let the river run,
                Dm
You are held beneath the sun,
Gm                    Dm
No need to hide what breaks inside—
A7                     Dm
Go on and cry, beloved one.


     Dm                     A7
Your tears are prayers the Spirit knows
                  Dm
He gathers every one that flows
     Gm                 Dm
The night is long, the grief is worn
A7                 Dm
Oh Mary, weep and mourn


[Chorus]
Dm                 A7
Go on cry, let the river run,
                Dm
You are held beneath the sun,
Gm                    Dm
No need to hide what breaks inside—
A7                     Dm
Go on and cry, beloved one.


Dm                        A7
Oh Martha, heavy with the day,
                      Dm
Buried your song and walked away,
     Gm                  Dm
But still the stone can roll aside,
    A7                          Dm
Oh Martha, bring your heart to light.


[Chorus]
Dm                 A7
Go on cry, let the river run,
                Dm
You are held beneath the sun,
Gm                    Dm
No need to hide what breaks inside—
A7                     Dm
Go on and cry, beloved one.


     Dm                A7
And Lazarus sleeps in every heart,
                        Dm
But love still calls us from the dark,
Gm                      Dm
No grave can hold what grace will start,
     A7                      Dm
And hope will rise in every part.


[Chorus]
Dm                 A7
Go on cry, let the river run,
                Dm
You are held beneath the sun,
Gm                    Dm
No need to hide what breaks inside—
A7                     Dm
Go on and cry, beloved one.


[Final Chorus]
Dm                 A7
Go on cry, let the river run,
                Dm
You are held beneath the sun,
Gm                 Dm
Even your grief is not alone—
A7                        Dm
Go on, cry, you’re coming home.
