The Nazarene came down

To live the life of every man

And He felt the fascination of the stars

And as He wandered through

This weary world

He wondered and He wept

For there were so few

Who listened to His call


(chorus)

He came, He saw

He surrendered all

So that we might be born again

And the fact of His humanity

Was there for all to see

For He was unlike any other man

And yet so much like me

The Nazarene could hunger

And the Nazarene could cry

And He could laugh

With all the fullness of His heart

And those who hardly knew Him

And those who knew Him well

Could feel the contradiction from the start
