They looked at Him and saw a simple man
A carpenter with healing in His hands
They saw Him calm a sea and heal a dying man

They saw but could they really understand

They could not, They could not

Though they tried, they could not
He was just a simple carpenter but with healing in His hands
But could they really understand, they could not


They listened to the teaching that they heard
They wondered at the mystery of His word

They wondered what He meant, about a Father's plan
They heard but could they really understand


They could not, They could not
Though they tried, they could not
They listened to the teaching about a Father's plan

But could they really understand, they could not

So finally upon a rugged cross

They killed the man who would not suffer loss
And when at last they took what willingly He gave
He died, but could they keep Him in the grave


They could not, They could not
Praise God, they could not

And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave
Could they keep Him in the grave, could they keep Him in the grave,
Could they keep Him in the grave...


They could not, They could not
Praise God, they could not

And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave
Could they keep Him in the grave, could they keep Him in the grave,
Could they keep Him in the grave, They could not!!!!
