David Phelps – End Of The Beginning lyrics

(Intro Music)
i was takin a trip on a plane the other day
just wishing that i could get out
When the man next to me saw the book in my hand
and asked me what it was about
so i settled back in my seat
a best seller i said
a history a mystery in one
and then i opened up the book and began to read
from matthew mark luke and john

Chorus:
He was born of a virgin one holy night
in the little town of bethlehem
angels gathered round him underneath the stars
singing praises to the great I am
he walked on the water healed the lame and made the blind to see again
and for the first time onhere on earthrned that God could be a friend
and tho he never ever did a single thing wrong
the angry crowd chose him and then he walked down the road
and died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning

Thats not a new book thats a bible he said and ive heard it all before
Ive tried religion its shame and guilt and i dont need it anymore
its superstition made up tales and just to help the weak to survive
let me read it again i said listen closely cuz this is gunna change your life

(Chorus)

The end of the beginning he said with a smile
what more could there be? hes dead.
you said they hung him put nails in his hands
and a crown of thorns on his head
i said i'll read it again but this time theres more
and i believe that this is true
his death wasnt the end, the beginning of life
thats completed in you
dont you see he did all this for you!

(Chorus)
then he walked and he died but
three days later (3x) HE ROSE!!!!!!!!

Three days later he rose!
You see he came, he lived, and he died
but that was the end of the beginning
