He Rose

Oh, oh, oh oh, ho

I was taking a trip on a plane the other day

Just wishin` that I could get out

When the man next to me saw the book in my hand

And asked me what it was about, so I sttled back in my seat

A best-seller, I said: A history and mistery in one

Then I opened up the book and began to read

From Matthew, Mark, Luke and John

He was born of a virgin one holy night

In the little town of bethlehem

Angels gathered ´round him underneath the star

Singing praises to the great I am

He walked on the water, healed the lame

And made the blind to see again, and for the first time here on earth

We learned that God could be a friend

And through he never, ever did a single thing wrong

The angry crowd chose him

And then he walked down the road and died on the cross

And that was the end of the beginning

Ooh, hoo

That`s not a new book, that`s a bible, he said

And I`ve heart it all before. I`ve tried religion

He shame and guilt, and I don`t need it anymore

It`s supertition, madeup tales, just to help the weak to survive

Let me read it again, I said, but listen closely

This is gonna change your life

He was born of a virgin one holy night

In the little town of bethlehem

Angels gathered round him underneath the star

Singing praises to the great I am

He walked on the water, healed the lame

And made the blind to see again, and for the first time here on earth

We learned that God could be a friend

And through he never, ever did a single thing wrong

The angry crowd chose him

And then he walked down the road and died on the cross

And that was the end of the beginning

Oh, hoo

Then end of the beginning? He said with a smile

What more could there be? He`s dead

You said they hung him?, and put nails in his hands

And crown of thorns on hi head

I said I`ll read it again, but this time, there`s more

And I believe that this is true

His death wasn`t the end but the beginning og life

That`s complete in you. Don`t you see?

He did all this for you

He was born of a virgin one holy night

In the little town of bethlehem

Angels gathered round him underneath the star

Singing praises to the great I am

He walked on the water, healed the lame

And made the blind to see, did you know that God could be a friend?

And through he never, ever did a single thing wrong

He was the one the crown chose. And then he walked, and he died

But three days later

Three days later, he rose!, three days he rose

You see, he came, and he lived, and he died, but that was the end

Of the beginning
