The Jewel of Jesus
The Jewel of Jesus is a precious gem
It’s Him being a friend to all earthly men
Also women of course, and children too
All the faithful followers He doth accrue.
Jesus was proud to wear His crown of thorns
Placed on His head during the raging storms
When it was decided that He must be crucified
Because it was thought that His words were lies.
He came here His Father’s spirit to share
To tell of His love for folk everywhere
He suffered for it, accused of being fake
Hung on a cross He was, for all our sakes.
Jesus never died, in hearts He survived
His spirit lives on, on earth He’s alive
He’s there in one’s thoughts and prayers night and day
A light in the dark to show us the way.
The heart of Jesus is made of pure gold
That shines for us until we all grow old
He will never let His followers down
As long as He is the Jewel in His crown.
