Oh, Mary, don't you weep

Spiritual – arranged by Mjchael  

The song tells the Biblical story of Mary of Bethany and her distraught pleas to Jesus to raise her brother Lazarus from the dead.

CHORUS

[G] Oh, Mary, don't you [D] weep, don't mourn;
[D7] Oh, Mary, don't you [G] weep, don't mourn;
[C] Pharaoh's army got [G] drowned,
Oh, [D] Mary, don't you [G] weep.

1

[G] Well if I could I surely [D] would,
[D7]Stand on the rock where [G] Moses stood.
[C] Pharaoh's army got [G] drowned,
Oh, [D] Mary, don't you [G] weep.

2

[G] One of these morns about [D] twelve o' clock
[D7] This old world is going to [G] reel and rock
[C] Pharaoh's army got [G] drowned,
Oh, [D] Mary, don't you [G] weep.
