the nazarene had come

The Nazarene had come to live

the life of every man

And he felt the fascination

of the stars

And as He wandered through this weary world

He wondered and He wept

For there were so few who'd listen

to His call




He came, He saw, He surrendered all

So that we might be born again

And the fact of His humanity

was there for all to see

For He was unlike any other man

And yet so much like me




The Nazarene could hunger

and the Nazarene could cry

And He could laugh with all the fullness

of His heart

And those who hardly knew Him

And those who knew Him well

Could feel the contradiction

from the start
