My Lord took me back to the Manger one day
I saw wise men and shepherds bowing to pray
Mary and Joseph were bowing their heads
Praising the newborn babe
Then He took me to John at the River Jordan
And I heard him ask Jesus if he was the one
The Spirit descended on Jesus that day
And God acknowledged His Son
Then I saw the five thousand sit at His feet
And from fishes and bread He gave them to eat
Abundant leftovers were scattered around
As Jesus just sat and preached
I came to a cave that was shut up tight
And soon He called out for the dead to gain life
The people around were frozen in awe
As Jesus walked into the night
Then the worst of all moments came into my sight
As I witnessed His trial and He didn’t fight
He stood there and took the offenses they threw
And silently gave up His life
They led Him away to an old rugged cross
Then I watched Him die, oh what a loss
But He asked that forgiveness be given to all
Before paying the ultimate cost
In those moments I realized the sights that I’d seen
Had all been revealed to me so I would see
That remembering what He had done for me
Would never be really enough
For the task that He has for me every day
Is to witness that He is the Truth and the Way
That salvation for all is a prayer away
If only I’ll help them believe.
Don’t Just Remember
