about this song: Jesse wrote all the lyrics to this song after learning about our [5in5] challenge. He wrote the melody line and I wrote the piano part and helped on a few minor rhythms. He wanted to “summarize” the story of the Bible. I think he did well.
god’s favor
in the beginning
god created heavens and earth
he said i’m gonna give a new birth
gonna create a man
in my own image yeah!
i’m gonna call him man
and then name him adam
oh yeah adam
oh oh
then he talked to abraham
he said I’m gonna give you many sons
look at all the stars
and see how far it goes oh
i’m gonna do a favor
gonna send a savior
in your family yeah
in your family (x2)
then a small baby child
was born in a mild place
ooh yeah
you could see his little face
oh yeah
his little face
yeah
yeah
then he started to grow
learn about the holy ghost
later he was was crucified
all the ladies cried
for jesus had died
god even sighed
then they put him in a tomb
it was kinda like his own room
then it was opened
an angel sat on it
then the ladies came
the angel said
he’s not dead
oh yeah
he has risen
he went to heaven
amen
it is finished
