Weep Not for Me

[Verse 1]

Along the path to the rugged cross,

Where the world would see love through loss,

The daughters of Jerusalem cried,

But He turned to them with eyes open wide.

[Pre-Chorus]

Weep not for Me, but for your kin,

For the days will come when sorrow begins.

[Chorus]

When the green wood burns, what will the dry endure?

A flame of justice, fierce and pure.

The earth will tremble, the hills will fall,

But grace still calls to one and all.

[Verse 2]

The barren wombs will be called blessed,

For judgment comes, and hearts will confess.

Mountains and hills, they’ll cry aloud,

To cover the shame of the trembling crowd.

[Pre-Chorus]

A chasm deep, a fire to divide,

Will you stand or fall in the rising tide?

[Chorus]

When the green wood burns, what will the dry endure?

A flame of justice, fierce and pure.

The earth will tremble, the hills will fall,

But grace still calls to one and all.

[Bridge]

O world, awake! The warning is clear,

Turn from your pride, your stubborn fear.

For the Lamb was slain to bear your pain,

Yet the dry will burn if rebellion remains.

[Chorus]

When the green wood burns, what will the dry endure?

A flame of justice, fierce and pure.

The earth will tremble, the hills will fall,

But grace still calls to one and all.

[Outro]

Weep not for Him, for He rose again,

The Savior of sinners, the healer of men.

But heed His words, let repentance flow,

For the time draws near, and His truth we’ll know.
