Song language: English
Secret Ambition |
| Young man up on the hillside |
| Teaching new ways |
| Each word winning them over |
| Each heart a kindled flame |
| Old men watch from the outside |
| Guarding their prey |
| Threatened by the voice of the paragon |
| Leading their lambs away |
| Leading them far away |
| Chorus: |
| Nobody knew His secret ambition |
| Nobody knew His claim to fame |
| He broke the old rules steeped in tradition |
| He tore the Holy Veil away |
| Questioning those in powerful position |
| Running to those who called His name |
| (But) Nobody knew His secret ambition |
| Was to give His life away |
| His rage shaking the temple |
| His word to the wise |
| His hand healing on the seventh day |
| His love wearing no disguise |
| Some say Death to the radical |
| He’s way out of line |
| Some say Praise be the miracle |
| God sends a blessed sign |
| A blessed sign for troubled times |
| Chorus: |
| Nobody knew His secret ambition |
| Nobody knew His claim to fame |
| He broke the old rules steeped in tradition |
| He tore the Holy Veil away |
| Questioning those in powerful position |
| Running to those who called His name |
| (But) Nobody knew His secret ambition |
| Was to give His life away |
| no, no no, no i tell you nobody knew, |
| untill he gave his life away |
