The Lonely Man Lyrics by David Koresh

Voice of Fire (Expanded)

1993

[Verse 1]
I saw the man
He rode through the gates of the city
Seen in his eyes
For the people, he cried with such pity
[Pre-Chorus]
I did not understand
Really didn't meet my plan
But this was the man…
[Chorus]
This one lonely man arose
The greatest today
The one who they called his name Jesus
What an awful regret
What a sorrowful death
We have killed him, who us, disagree
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, won't you learn?
[Verse 2]
I just turned in despair
There's nothing to care for anymore
What a fool was I
I might as well diе
I know what's in store
But he's just, I will agree
I desеrve the penalty
Oh, what a fool
I even broke the Golden Rule
[Pre-Chorus]
For this was the man…
[Chorus]
This one lonely man arose
The greatest today
The one who they called his name Jesus
What an awful regret
What a sorrowful death
We have killed him, who us, disagree
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, won't you learn?
[Verse 3]
I walk down the street
I hear this man speak to crowds gathered by
Hey, the same one I knew
The cursed and despised
The one crucified
"What is this?" I hear him say
The debts of all have now been paid
We are to rejoice
[Pre-Chorus]
For this was the man…
[Chorus]
This one lonely man arose
The greatest today
The one who they called his name Jesus
He's given, taken life
He's removed our strife
And now he wants us forgiven
[Outro]
(Did you hear that?)
Oh, Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord
