1
Oh Lord, You know that I'm not one
2
To bother You with little things
3
And You and I have never been too close
4
But we've always been on speakin' terms
5
I've watched You with doin' things
6
And tried to understand You more than most
7
No, I haven't gone to church the way I ought to
8
But I always thought You knew
9
In my own way I worshiped You
10
While even Your own children doubt and fail to understand
11
The simple way You go about the things You do
12
I've seen the doubt upon the face of loved ones
13
As they sadly placed a wreath of flowers on a tiny grave
14
And wondered why a child is brought into the world
15
To only live a little while and die, You could have saved
16
But I believe that in your eyes
17
This little child was somethin' special
18
And You wanted it to be with You, no doubt
19

23
Till he neared the age of knowin'
24

25
No doctor could correct it, it was just as I suspected
26
And I marveled at Your way of bein' kind
27
They tried everything in vain
28
And I was there when they explained it
29
To the family, how he slipped into a trance
30
Guess You looked into the future
31
Watched him turn his back upon You
32
Lovin' him so much You couldn't take the chance
33
It took a lot of love to die, for sinners such as I
34
And I guess that's why You've never given up on me
35
You understood when some denied You
36
And even when they crucified You
37
Knowin' all these things were meant to be
38
For the stable's such a simple thing
39
No wonder there were few who came
40
To see a king the night that
