He was born unto a virgin, Carpenter raised,
and at 12 years old, if He spoke you'd be amazed.
A galilean, to save a whole nation,
From Jews to Gentiles in collaboration,
His death predicted, birth was prophesied,
His teaching evicted by Pharisees (and) other guys,
You would assume this king was accepted,
Instead put to death on a cross and rejected,
God as a man, the Word in the flesh,
The light of the world comin' out of His breath,
And He came a beacon, redemption plan,
Instead we drove three nails though His hands,
The meek they liked Him, Jews despised Him,
Crowds were screaming out crucify Him!
Pontius Pilate turned a blind eye,
And Peter denied three times before the cock cried,
God the Son put to death—executed
His trial was unjust—but no one disputed,
His death so that you be justified,
The Lamb who died, took the wrath for His bribe,
Chorus:
Praise His mightee tee name!
The save the least as suffering servant,
Praise His mightee tee name!
He died for those who did not deserve it,
Praise His mightee tee name!
You can't steal, break, buy, or earn it.
Praise His mightee tee name!
His judgement comin' there will be no adjournment.
V2:
Yo I can understand why, people can't stand religion,
When priests have sex with children and go to prison,
Every time I turn the TV on someones to blame,
Mis-use and misrepresenting of God's name,
And we roll their eyes and believe we're not the same,
Microscope your life and ya' know ya'd be ashamed,
It only takes one person's sinful manifestations,
To give all Christians a bad reputation,
And when I'm witnessing—people get prejudice,
They don't wanna hear about the truth or the evidence,
They're too busy thinking about religious leaders,
They've been offended by christians and preachers,
They might'a met a couple of St Peters,
Man Christians are perfect—but check out this guy Jesus,
I can't vouch for another man's sin,
But God has final judgment on all men.
