Vamping

(toying around with this song. forgive me for the lack of structure.)

you're the only God who has walked among His people
you're the only one who bothered to come to us
you put on a tent of skin and made your home among us
you lived and breathed and laughed and cried and loved

the leaders did not believe you for who you said you were
the zealots and pharisees and rulers of the land
but you took that simple fisherman and covered
him with your wings and showed him
signs and wonders on the earth

you're the only God who has walked among His people,
you're the only one who bothered to come to us

those men who followed you they thought
you came to set a kingdom of mortar and
stone and buildings firm and strong
but you had other notions and brought your
Father's kingdom
signs and wonders and miracles abound

the woman who ate your crumbs, the man with no sight in his eyes,
the children dying, the demons in the man,
the tax collector, the harlot, the sinner
and the miscreants all came and you had
compassion
