Brothers, quite honestly
Is the Bible a white lie? It predicts history
Have you read the parts prophesyin' Messiah?
See, from Daniel – the Israelites knew
The Christ would be there – be there real soon
And so they counted till they got one
And eschewed everyone who's not one
It's in Daniel, chapter 9 -- the
Messiah! Messiah!
You ready?
Under Caesar's when they'd find the
Messiah! Messiah!
Yearning -- yearning
He gave all us the time projections
Seek the prophets for your directions
The Scriptures that came long ago
I can preach it -- still your heart has to let Him in, though
So let Him, honey, honey, honey
Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey
And when Jesus gets inside ya
Messiah! Messiah!
Messiah! Messiah!
Messiah! Messiah!
