Here Was A Man - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]

Here was a man a man who was born in a small village[00:00:09]

The son of a peasant woman[00:00:13]

He grew up in another small village[00:00:16]

Until he reached the age of thirty he worked as a carpenter[00:00:19]

Then for three years he was a traveling minister[00:00:23]

But he never traveled more than[00:00:26]

Two hundred miles from where he was born[00:00:27]

And where he did go he usually walked[00:00:30]

He never held political office[00:00:36]

He never wrote a book never bought a home[00:00:38]

Never had a family he never went to college[00:00:40]

And he never set foot inside a big city[00:00:43]

Yes here was a man[00:00:49]

Though he never did one on[00:00:51]

The things usually associated with greatness[00:00:52]

He had no credentials but himself[00:00:55]

He had nothing to do with this world[00:00:58]

Except through the devine purpose[00:01:00]

That brought him to this world[00:01:02]

While he was still a young man[00:01:07]

The tide of popular opinion turned against him[00:01:09]

Most of his friends ran away one of them denied him[00:01:12]

One of them betrayed him and turned him over to his enemies[00:01:17]

Then he went through the mockery of a trial[00:01:20]

And was nailed to a cross between two thieves[00:01:22]

And even while he was dying his executioners gambled[00:01:26]

For the only piece of property that he had in this world[00:01:30]

And that was his robe his purple robe[00:01:33]

When he was dead he was taken down from the cross[00:01:40]

And laid in a borrowed grave provided[00:01:43]

By compassionate friends[00:01:45]

More than nineteen centuries have come and gone[00:01:50]

And today he's a centerpiece of the human race[00:01:53]

Our leader in the column to human destiny[00:01:56]

I think I'm well within the mark[00:02:00]

When I say that all of the armies that ever marched[00:02:02]

All of the navies that ever sailed the seas[00:02:06]

All of the legislative bodies that ever sat[00:02:09]

And all of the kings that ever reigned[00:02:12]

All of them put together have not affected[00:02:15]

The life of man on this earth[00:02:17]

So powerfully as that one solitary cheery life[00:02:20]

Here was a man[00:02:27]

Joy to the world the lord is come[00:02:30]
