Jesus, They Call

Jesus - they wrote of your coming long before anyone understood what your coming meant.

Jesus, They Call

Jesus - they wrote
  of your coming long
  before anyone understood
  what your coming meant.
And they awaited you.

Jesus - they followed
  your every step along
  the road to life, and yet
  were blinded to the truth.
Still, they believed in you.

Jesus - they left
  that fatal night the
  soldiers came to take you
  to your death - our life.
They trust in you faltered.

Jesus - they mourned
  at your feet as you
  expired upon the cross
  that you were born to bear.
Dead was their bright new king.

Jesus - they came
  to anoint your body as
  was the custom of the time,
  but found you had risen.
Your temple was restored.

Jesus - they cried
  for their weakness and
  disbelief, now they understand,
  and it os the name of
Jesus, Jesus - they call.
