I was just readin of John of old, tellin bout one who'd come
A man with a plan the great "I AM" that would shake us down to our souls.
He'd come up out of Galilee, and Jesus was his name
Before he was done, nothing under the sun would ever be the same
Chorus
All the Jews were singin the blues, them Romans they were mean
They were lookin for a savior; they were looking for a king
He claimed that He was "King of the Jews," but he didn't fit their bill
He stirred the pot so they formed a plot; he needed to be killed
Chorus
God's people were in bondage but not by Roman hands
The chains that bound their evil hearts came from Adam's sin.
The only sinless sacrifice must come down from above
So God said, "Son go down there and tell them about my love"
I'd like to say that we today have learned from their mistakes
We still need savin from the same old cravin, we stumble, and we fall
But there He stands with holes in his hands welcoming us all
Saved forever, I'm a whosoever, so listen to His call.
Chorus
Step back brother, I need some room, I think I'm gonna shout,
Jesus saves completely and that's what it's all about
The story's old and has been told, since God said, "Let's begin"
But when the Spirit stirs me, it all feels new again.
