There once was a man |
|
Who was born to be king |
|
He changed all our lives |
|
And he made my heart sing |
|
He turned water into wine |
|
And called his fishermen |
|
He cured the sick |
|
The lame could walk |
|
The blind could see again |
|
He told us of the shepherds |
|
And the flowers in the field |
|
The story of the farmer's seed |
|
And the harvest it would yield |
|
He told us of two houses |
|
And the man who lost his son |
|
Of two men in the temple |
|
And the good samaritan |
|
Love |
|
Only love's gonna take you higher |
|
Love |
|
Only love's gonna carry you home |
|
He healed the soldier's servant |
|
He calmed the raging sea |
|
He shared five loaves and two small fish |
|
And five thousand he did feed |
|
He told the rich men share your wealth |
|
He cured the ten sick men |
|
He raised a friend called lazarus |
|
And made him whole again |
|
He said love |
|
Only love's gonna take you higher |
|
Love |
|
Only love's gonna carry you home |
|
He taught the children how to pray |
|
The children he did bless |
|
And mary came with perfume |
|
Before his feet she wept |
|
He gave us bread - his body |
|
He gave us wine - his blood |
|
He asked us all to live in peace |
|
And nothing do but good |
|
Now one friend did betray him |
|
Another did deny |
|
With arms outstretched he died |
|
So all of mankind could survive |
|
There once was a man |
|
Who was born to be king |
|
He'll change all your lives |
|
If you'll just let him in |
|
He said love |
|
Only love's gonna take you higher |
|
Love |
|
Only love's gonna carry you home |
|
Love and understanding carries you home |
|
Love |
|
Only love's gonna take you higher |
|
Higher and higher |
|
He said love |
|
Only love's gonna carry you home |
|
Love... |
