When Jesus Walked Among Us

WHEN JESUS WALKED AMONG US

When Jesus walked among us,
He revealed the heart of God…
His love flowed like a river,
As upon the earth He trod.

He was gentle, He was humble –
His quest was not for fame;
To reveal God's love and mercy
Was the reason that He came.

He reached out to the weary,
And by His love they were renewed.
He cheered the brokenhearted,
And pardoned the accused.

As He travelled on His journey,
He healed the lame and blind.
He refreshed the tired and thirsty,
And calmed the troubled mind.

He fed the weak and hungry,
And ministered God's love.
He reached out to the sinners,
Like His Father up above.

Then He made that final sacrifice…
He died for you and me.
His blood flowed like a river –
It was shed to set us free.

But then came the final victory,
For on the third day He arose –
He broke the power of sin and death,
And defeated all our foes.

My Jesus came to set me free,
He died that I might live.
So forever I will sing His praise,
And to Him my life I'll give.
