Verse 1 (Nick Kreutzjans)
Uh-Uh-Huh It’s the genealogy of Jesus
Yeah-Yeah Yeah He came from the family of Abraham
And Joseph was his step dad
He was from the line of David
And the Virgin Mary was his mother
Now once he was born trouble was a brewin’
Yeah-Yeah Yeah Herod the great was his name
And his mission was to kill him
Now the Magi followed the great star
And delivered precious gifts
They gave Jesus gold, myrrh, and frankincense
Now Joseph had been warned by an angel of source
To depart for Egypt to make a drastic course
But on his way Herod died
And Jesus’ death was reversed

Now John the Baptist, Jesus’ friend was preaching in Judea
He baptized men in the river of J-O-R-D-A-N... Jordan
As Jesus came from Galilee
He asked John to baptize him
John refused but Jesus said allow it to fulfill righteousness
Awhile later Jesus was tempted by the Devil
He fasted in desert forty nights
Then the devil came back to him
He said turn dem’ stones in to loaves and be fulfilled
Jesus refused and the angels administered to him.

It all started on the Sermon on the Mount
“Blessed are the poor in spirit
Blessed are they who mourn
Blessed are the meek, oh yeah
Blessed are the merciful
Blessed are the clean of heart
Blessed aare the peacemakers
And Blessed are those who hunger
For righteousness
And blessed are those who are persecuted
For righteousness

Jesus traveled all around Israel
Makin the scribes and Pharisees look pale
He proclaimed the word and never went to jail
And said the kingdom of God waas open to those who even failed
Jesus always taught peace, not eye for an eye
But give him your other eye oh pow surprise
He multiplied fish, healed, and raised the dead
Some call it a miracle but he had great faith
When Jesus entered Jerusalem
He knew it was his last days
Beccause he told his disciples
To keep great faith
And when he went to the Temple
To reflect and Pray
There were hustlers in the temple
Gamblin and gettin paid
Now Jesus saw this and got pretty pissed
He turned over tables and kicked the doves out of dis
Jesus never turned to assaulting or knocking down spit
But it was God’s and he wanted to preserve it
One of the last things said to the disciples
Was the judgement of the Nations
It was a big lesson aiight
When the savior comes again he will separate us into two
One group going to heaven and the other going
To you-know-who

Verse 3(Nick Kreutzjans)
Judas Iscariot, one of the 12
Sold Jesus for 30 coins
And betrayed him
Jesus had his last supper
With his disciples
He said one of you will betray me
And it'll be sealed with a kiss
Early the next morning Jesus was taken in
They charged him with blasphamey
And he was on his road for righteousness
When Jesus got to the cross
They stripped him of his clothes
They hung him next to 2 villians
And mocked them all for fun
When Jesus died on the cross
They laid him in a tomb
But 3 days later Jesus rose
And saved us from our sins.
