The Teacher
(专辑: Holy Bible: New Testament - 1975)
So Jesus and the
twelve traveled all over Galilee Not just preaching to the
people, but teaching the
people And the
crowds followed Him because He talked with authority Like no one they had ever heard before A
Teacher came into the
city And Galilee was eager to hear What the
Teacher said, turned the
people's heads And set the
city right on it's ear He was holding class on a
mountain The
class was intent on His word The
lesson on the
mount was how to live and make it count They listened and here's what they heard Blessed are the
poor in spirit That's right, they will have the
Kingdom of God Blessed are they that mourn Their shackles will be torn And those who bear the
cross of right, will have reward "Blessed are the
meek", said the
Teacher Yes, they will inherit the
earth Those who hunger for the
right, will appease their appetite Their cup will be filled, to quench their thirst The
Teacher was someone Like no one that they'd seen before The
Teacher had something about Him They couldn't ignore The
merciful will know of God's mercy The
pure in heart will see the
heart of God Yeah, they will, and He went on to teach The
makers of the
peace will be called the
children of God "Blessed are you", said the
Teacher When men persecute you and lie Though it's hard to take, if it's for My sake You will have reward by and by The
Teacher was someone Like no one that they'd seen before The
Teacher had something about Him They couldn't ignore The
Teacher was a
man called Jesus He came to save us from sin When you hear Him speak And turn the
other cheek That's an apple for the
Teacher of men That's an apple for the
Teacher of men
