Only a tramp was Lazarus that day
|
He who laid down at the rich man's gate
|
He begged for the crumbs from the rich man to eat
|
He was only a tramp found dead on the street
|
|
He was some mother's darling he was some mother's son
|
Once he was fair and once he was young
|
Some mother rocked him her darling to sleep
|
But they left him to die like a tramp on the street

|
Jesus who died on Calvary's tree
|
shed his life's blood for you and for me
|
They pierced his sides his hands and his feet
|
Then they left him to die like a tramp on the street
|
|
He was Mary's own darling he was God's chosen son
|
Once he was fair and once he was young
|
Mary she rocked him her darling to sleep
|
But they left him to die like a tramp on the street
