Lyrics
Innocent One
Mary came in mourning in the dark before the dawn
The tears that washed the Master's feet washed hope til it was gone
She said tell me if you've taken the body from this grave
Tell me where you've laid him I will carry him away
I'm looking for The Innocent One can He be alive?
Can he be alive?
Peter can in wonder, and marveled at these things
Not quick enough to understand, not slow enough to think
And Thomas stood and doubted, you say that He's alive?
How can I believe until I touch His hands and side?
I'm looking for the Innocent One...
They came to find a body to prepare it for the grave
Instead they found a Savior, risen and alive
And all who seek will find
In the body of this sinner dwells the soul of this saint
That mourns when hope's forgotten, that wonders at Your ways
That wrestles with the burdens of doubt and fear and faith
That bows in humble worship when confronted by Your grace
I'm looking for The Innocent One, I believe He's alive
I believe He's alive, I believe He's alive!
