WHY DO WE CRY
Author(s): Paul Michael
Songbook: Songs of Love Songbook
KeyWords: Death and Heaven,

I dreamed of the death of one of
My loved ones the other day
I said, "She is risen, she's not there,
I don't even want to go and see the grave"

Chorus:
Why do we cry, why be sad
When they've gone to their reward
Why don't we sing, be happy and glad
'Cause they've gone to be with the Lord
Someone insisted I come and I take a look
Like an angel she lay there
But I looked at her and I said,
"I tell you, she's risen she's not here"

[Repeat Chorus]

They're doing great, don't you worry about them
They're getting a whole new start
When you die sudden death is sudden glory
If you have Jesus in your heart

[Repeat first verse]

[Repeat Chorus Three Times]
