They Didn’t Believe Her
[SPOKEN]
(BAND: "7A")
(JOHN: "What number is this?")
(BAND: "7A")
(JOHN: "Okay, don't mean--don't need to get excited, man. It's cause I'm tall, I know.")
[Verse 1]
Oh, I should hide at least a week
From the boo birds as we speak
They seek to cause us harm in everything
But a grain cannot rise
Like a seed, unless it dies
The Savior raised us all, and it's Spring
[Chorus 1]
"Cheer up, weepy team!"
"He rose up!", Mary screamed to 'em
They didn't believe her
In that soul-crushing scene
[Verse 2]
You once thought that He
Was the Christ quite honestly
Now you look unhappy, I can see
Oh, and I would not shout, my friends
Without proper evidence
But how much, baby, do you really need?
[Chorus 2]
"Cheer up -- weepy team!"
"He rose up!", Mary screamed to 'em
They didn't believe her
In that hope-numbing scene
[Chorus 2]
"Cheer up -- weepy team!"
"He rose up!", Mary screamed to 'em
They didn't believe her
In that hope-numbing scene
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 3]
"Cheer up, be redeemed!"
Know what Mary screams to us
Take heed, believe her
And have hope. Come and see!
[Chorus 3]
"Cheer up, be redeemed!"
Know what Mary screams to us
Take heed, believe her
And have hope. Come and see!
[Outro]
"Cheer up, be redeemed!"
