When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. “Where have you laid him?” he asked.

“Come and see, Lord,” they replied.

Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”

John 11:33-36

i open my heart

you sit and cry with me
because you know how to weep
and when to mourn

you do not force a smile
i know you’ll sit here with me
if it takes a while

you are a patient man
i can trust you with my heart
it’s safe in your hands

i open my heart
and i let you in
i come to rest
with my very best friend

you sit and hold me close
you have never been far
you have stayed the most

can any other man
carry the griefs of the world
in his whole life’s span

and yet you never leave
you come closer than a brother
and you comfort me

i open my heart
and i let you in
i want to rest
with my very best friend

i open my heart
and i let you in
i come to rest
with my very best friend

you restore
you make whole
jesus you heal my soul
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.



I should infinitely prefer a book.
