The
Man of Galilee
There
was a man of Galilee,
His power before unknown.
He healed the sick, the blind and lame,
For He was not alone.
Some
called this man a prophet of God;
And others the risen John,
But a very few knew Him to be,
The Christ, God's only Son.
The
dusty roads of Judea He trod,
And in synagogues He taught.
The common people gladly heard,
And for His counsel sought.
He
came to establish a kingdom strong,
And to reign upon its throne.
But not a kingdom of this world,
Which someday will be gone.
He
gave us the keys to this kingdom,
That Jews and Gentiles may have,
The gospel of our salvation,
The wonderful story of love.
When
on the cross Jesus suffered,
For people like you and me,
He bought the church with His own blood,
This great man from Galilee.
When
in the clouds we see Him come,
We'll humbly bow at His feet.
For He is our Lord and Savior,
He has made our lives complete.
