JESUS OF NAZARETH

See the great crowds as they throng their way
Through the villages bordering the sea.
People came out, to see, to hear
                                              This stranger from Galilee.
He walks tall midst the crowd, this wondrous man,
His eyes filled with wisdom and love.
Speaks words that teach in simple ways;
The will of his Father above.
By the thousands they gather from near and far;
Gather close round his knees on the ground,
Where with outstretched arms He boldly declares
The Sermon on the Mount.

                            The lepers are healed, the blind made to see;
                             The young man's body from spirits set free. 
From the narrow lanes you can hear them cry,
"Jesus from Nazareth just walked by."
The meme and sick to Him they bring,
As they call Him, "Rabbani, Prophet, King."
To see His hands with their wondrous touch;
The hands that would heal and do so much.
As their burdens He lifted, for joy they cry,
"Jesus from Nazareth walked by."
