Barclay James Harvest

there once was a man
who was born to be king
he changed all our lives
and he made my heart sing
he turned water into wine
and called his fishermen
he cured the sick, the lame could walk
the blind could see again
he told us of the shepherds
and the flowers in the field
the story of the farmers seed
and the harvest it would yield
he told us of two houses
and the man who lost his son
of two men in the temple
and the good samaritan

only love's gonna take you higher
love___________
only love's gonna carry you home
he healed the soldier's servant
he calmed the raging sea
he shared five loaves and fishes
and five thousand he did feed
he told the rich men share your wealth
he cured the ten sick men
he raised a friend called Lazarus
and made him whole again
he said love___________
only love's gonna take you higher
love___________
only love's gonna carry you home
he taught the people how to pray
the children he did bless
and Mary came with purfume
and before his feet she wept
he gave us bread - his body
he gave us wine - his blood
he asked us all to live in peace
and nothing do but good
he said love___________
only love's gonna take you higher
he said love___________
only love's gonna carry you home
love and understanding
love___________
only love's gonna take you higher, higher and higher
he said love___________
only love's gonna carry you home
