The Lyrics

Just a statement of faith, no humor intended. Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter! (If no new posts on Good Friday, hope you HAD a wonderful Easter!)
There was a man
Two thousand years ago
He was a man of woe
He was an odd fellow.

He came along
To right a wrong for you
His destiny to do
More than an old fellow

A kind heart that burned
A soul that played his role.
Who was this odd fellow?

His plans
Oh yeah his plans were set
Long before the earth began to cool
Love known before our history
You should know his story.

Such misery
And pain we know today
We search for those to blame
Even on this odd fellow

We’re kids that play
Wanting to have our way
Choosing to look away
From this odd fellow

Beating
A heart that beats and loves
Broken and then he made it whole
Now he is here and waiting in the sky
Yes, he offers you the sky.

He’s true
Look how he lived for you
Look how he died for you
Look how he rose for you
Look how he waits for you
Look how he waits
Look how he waits, he longs to shine on you.

Ouch! Care to comment 4-1-1? I can understand the 1 under "Funny", but the other I'm not sure about. Was it childish? Overbearing? Other? Thanks for taking the time to vote.

Thanks, Mark. Really good work on Rock. I enjoyed it very much. Kind of nice to see a couple of Christian parodies from two different authors on the same day!

Sorry I was late responding, Warren. Thought-provoking and reverent take. Senor Onecess was bound to turn on you sooner or later...the only way he'll ever be the best man here is to drive all the rest of us off. 5-5-5 for you and The Man. ;D

Thanks for the v/c, OMR. No worries on the One Meister. It may be frustrating at times to get the votes and no comments, but I'm just tickled to get my words out there. Have a great Easter, sir!
