Once
upon a time far down in Palestine
There lived
and grew up a man who did no crime
He was baptized
in the Jordan by a man called John
Who said:
„He is the lamb“ and where he’s coming from
Jesus is
his name, he came to set you free
He called
some fishermen and said: „Come follow me“
Go, go, go
to the people go, go to the people go
Go to the
people go, go to the people go
Tell ‘em
from God
Jesus told
the people ‘bout the love of God
He wants
to set them free from their sin and mud
He rose the
dead, healed the sick and helped the poor
He never
said a bad word to the people for sure
But they
did not accept him as their only boss
They took
him up to pilate and they nailed him to the cross
They took
him to a grave where he didn’t stay
For the power
of our Lord made the city shake
He went back
to his disciples who first couldn’t believe
He gave them
a job for which we also should live
He said:
„Go out to the nations and to everyone
To preach
the Good News, oh yeah, until it’s done“
