Sandi Patty Album: Lift Up the Lord Track: They Could Not They Could Not Lyrics By Ron Harris and Claire Cloninger The looked at Him and saw a simple man. A carpenter with healing in His hands. They saw Him calm the sea and heal a dying man They saw, but could they really understand. Chorus: They could not, they could not Though they tried, they could not He was just a simple carpenter, but with healing in His hands But could they really understand They could not. They listened to the teaching that they heard They wondered at the mystery of His word They wondered what He meant about a Father's plan They heard, but could they really understand (Chorus) So finally upon a rugged cross They killed the man who would not suffer loss And when at last they took what willing He gave He died, but could they keep Him in the grave (Chorus) They could not, they could not Praise God, they could not And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave Could they keep Him in the grave Could they keep Him in the grave Could they keep Him in the grave They could not, they could not Praise God, they could not And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave Could they keep Him in the grave Could they keep Him in the grave Could they keep Him in the grave They could not They could not. © 1981 Ron Harris Music / ASCAP.
