The One Named Jesus
When God was man and we could see
The love He gave for you and me
He was mocked hated and despised
His love was foreign to our eyes
The wicked said,now stop! Don't preach
It's we who must now preach and teach
But He denied the lies they taught
To give the bread the Father brought
Now Satan's men were angered when
They learned that Jesus would not bend
Then Satan gave his men a plan
By which he thought to bind this strong man
They took Him in the dead of night
To try Him when they had no right
When they approached He did not flee
This was the path to set man free
His life He gave upon the cross
He paid sins price it was the cost
Though Satan thought he'd won the fight
Twas Christ who'd have the final might
Three days and nights His body lay
In the tomb to decay
But on the fourth He did arise
The tomb would shake for He's alive
The Satan said what shall I do
The son of God has broken through
Yes He arose disciples say
To give new life and light mans way
