He came to us, a simple child
a child who was so beguiled
born to a carpenter and his wife
he took the time to grow up and have a life
at the last supper he said "eat this in remembrance of me"
"drink this in remembrance of me"
he took on all the pain
he took it on like a stain
they made his flesh bleed
but he knew he did a great deed
with his bloodshed he made the way
in his last words he said "it is done"
god so loved the world be gave his only begotten son
three days passed he rose from the grave
with this, his mercy he gave
his work doesn't end there
he can be reached through every prayer
he carries you when you can no longer walk
he is there when you need to talk
he is JESUS and a king
though he carries you under his wing
when the road ahead seems to baneful
he will carry you when he feels it's to painful
he is JESUS and he is the right
he will hold you with all his might
JESUS was, JESUS came, JESUS is
