Lyrics:
(Verse)
When God called Him to Israel
Jesus moved to Galilee
He came to dwell in Nazareth
where it was safe for Him to be
And John prepared His way
for God’s Kingdom was at hand
and to all he would say
Heaven lies above this land, and…
(Chorus)
John spoke of Him to come
He who was the mighty one
That He would baptize all
for the Father, as the Son
Of the Holy Ghost He did
to all who would accept
that He was their Savior
that God’s promise had been kept
(Verse)
And Jesus went from Galilee
to Jordan and to John
where He was baptized rightfully
in John’s hands it was done
And when he rose back up
from waters he was laid in
He saw the spirit of God come
He witnessed Him descend, yes…
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Then Jesus went to preach
He healed the sick and lame
Wherever He could reach
He taught in His Father’s name
And He fasted forty days and nights
in the desert all alone
Until tempted by Satan
when Jesus held His own
(Repeat Chorus)
(Outro)
Yes, God’s promise had been kept
