The Man Who Inspired Me Most

THE MAN WHO INSPIRED ME MOST My Father was a carpenter by trade Until He decided to preach instead He traveled around neighborhood Healing the sick and raising the dead He was hated by His jealous peers Who sought to do Him wrong He was often greeted by heated jeers But His faith was very strong He often fed thousands all at one time His compassion for them was great He never received a single dime From the multitudes who ate He chose twelve men to follow His lead He taught them all that He knew They taught others of His every deed Those who believed were more than a few Despised and hated, He soon would have to die Crucified cruelly on a Roman cross But He rose again for you and I So we would not have to be lost We celebrate His Birth each year Because we love Him without shame He loves us with a love so dear And Jesus is His Name
