| A long time ago there was a Man
|
| Who laid down His life on the line
|
| He claimed He could make the lame walk again
|
| And give back the sight to the blind
|
| Now some people loved Him
|
| Some people wanted to take Him and put Him away
|
| Well I wasn’t there to see what he did
|
| But if He were right here today
|
| I would crawl all the way to the river
|
| I would crawl all the way to the sea
|
| Just to watch Him walk on the water
|
| And lay His loving hands on me
|
| A carpenter by trade but the kingdom that He made
|
| Was build without hammer and nails
|
| It stands like a rock through the ages of time
|
| It was built with the Love that never fails
|
| I’ve read in the Good Book that some day He’s coming
|
| And some say it ain’t far away
|
| But the day that He stands on the banks of the Jordan
|
| This sinner will be on his way |
