Knowing Jesus


Jesus son of Joseph, who we knew,
A long time before He wore a shoe;
He says He came down from Heaven,
But through Mary His birth was given.

It is a story that is so hard to believe,
That some say He is trying to deceive;
Then of Joseph if His Father is above,
Who sent Him to preach all about love.

But we forget what the Scriptures say,
And of the prophets told of one day;
About the Messiah, the anointed one,
Through a virgin giving birth to a son.

To be called as the Prince of Peace,
Even though wars would not cease;
Rather with saving us all from sin,
If we confess to be cleansed within.

He who believes will have eternity,
Of an everlasting life spiritually;
If we will love Him like a brother,
We can enter the House of His Father.
