Lyrics
WHEN JESUS CAME TO JERICHO by Jeff Leslie 11/10/95, 4/15/06
Music by Vitor Talhadas
As the sun beamed down and burned the sand
Sweat stung the eyes of the blinded man
He wiped them dry with his dingy cloak
Begging on the streets of Jericho
And people passed him every day
Without a coin for his cup of clay
For all they heard were his endless cries
Oh, why do I have blinded eyes?
(CHORUS)
Then he heard a song coming down a distant road
He heard a song and his heart was filled with hope
The music played and hed never be the same
On the day when Jesus came to Jericho
The music that the blind man heard
Was the simple sound of the Saviors words.
So the man cried out above the crowd
Until Jesus stopped and turned around
He told them, Bring the blind to me
For I, alone, can make them see
Ill prove I am the Light, the way
This sightless man will see today.
(BRIDGE)
Down through the ages his story will be told
About the way his life was changed and the Man Who made it so
He never saw Him coming but he watched the Saviour go
On the day when Jesus came to Jericho
(CHORUS)
He heard a song coming down a distant road
He heard a song and his heart was filled with hope
The music played and hed never be the same
On the day when Jesus came to Jericho
