A Man Called Jesus by Mavis Staples
A Man Called Jesus lyrics
Jesus
(Love)
(Higher up)
(Higher up)
Let me tell U about a man I know
Had power 2 change bread 2 gold
Never did he pray 4 what he didn't need
The word of God he always heeded 2
A man called Jesus
A man called Jesus
Born in Bethlehem Christmas Day
A man whose life changed the way
Everywhere with the holy word he went
Some folks said it was absurd
He walked on water like dry land
Floatin' on faith
I'm talkin' about the man called (Jesus) Jesus (Love)
Jesus (Higher up) Jesus
Non-believers soon grew 2 hate (Jesus)
Cuz when he rapped he put love in the place
My God is love (Higher up)
Jesus (Love) (Higher up)
Mary's baby Jesus
4 every man, woman, boy and girl
This man died 4 the sins of the world, of the world
U can have happiness everyday
This man's life is proof and his word is the way
His word is the way
And that word is love (Love)
Alright (Higher up)
Yeah, yeah
(Jesus) Jesus
(Jesus, Jesus) Jesus (Higher up)
(Love) (Higher up)
My Jesus, Jesus (Ooh yeah)
Oh Lord, woke me up this mornin' (Jesus)
Started me on my way (Started me on my way)
I'm talkin' about Jesus (Higher, higher, higher up)
Let me tell U about a man I know
Had power 2 change bread 2 gold
Never did he pray 4 what he didn't need
God's word he always heeded
(Jesus) Jesus (Jesus) Jesus
(Jesus) Jesus (Jesus)
(Jesus, Jesus) Oh, how I love 2 call your name
(Higher, higher, higher up)
Jesus, Jesus
(Love 2 call, come on and love His name)
A friend above all others
U make a way out of no way
Turn the midnight into day
Mary's baby born in Bethlehem (Jesus)
My main man Jesus (Higher up)
Lily of the valley (Jesus)
Bright and morning star
He's the Prince of Peace (Higher up)
Listen y'all
I'm talkin bout the man, I'm talkin bout the man
A man called Jesus
U oughta get 2 know him
U oughta try him
Jesus (Jesus) Jesus (Jesus) (Higher up)
Jesus (Jesus) Jesus (Jesus)
Jesus (Jesus) Jesus (Jesus)
