Lyrics

?Would You Know Him??

He was born in Pennsylvania in the city of brotherly love
On that cold night in December, they say a strange star shone above
From as far away as Bethlehem, they came to see this special boy
The paparazzi and reporters even left there filled with joy
All those who were drawn to this holy place
Gave thanks and rejoiced when they saw his face

Chorus I.

Would you know him lyin? peacefully asleep
In a downtown mercy mission on a north Philadelphia street
Would you recognize the one who gave his life?
Would you know him?

Before the age of thirteen, they say he traveled to the east
He came back when he was thirty, and started preachin? love and peace
Some said he was a teacher ? some said the son of God
Some evangelists and preachers claimed he was a fraud
He stood before the world when he was thirty-three
And offered up his precious life for you and me

Chorus II.

Would you know him if you saw him on the street
Would you drive the nails into his hands or kneel down at his feet
Would you recognize the one who gave his life?
Would you know him? Would you know him? Would you know?
