a father's love

he healed the sick
he dined with the least of these
he loved and he forgave
he served and he taught
he prayed unceasingly
his name is jesus

he was a real and perfect man
he carried a tree
he wore a crown of thorns
he bled and he suffered
his scars bore our sins
his name is jesus

there were nails driven into his hands
he hung on a cross
he called out to his heavenly father
he breathed his last breath
he sacrificed his life for us
his name is jesus

his mother cried for him
the sky opened for him
he rose from the grave
he lives in heaven
he will come again to earth
his name is jesus
