Chesney Kenny - Just A Kid lyrics

Well the news spread through Jerusalem, tonight a child is born

There are shepherds fallin' to their knees, and Angels blowin' horns

But in their golden halls the Pharasees

Scoffed and drank their wine

They said it's only Hebrew prophesy

We don't care and besides He just a kid

That's all He is

One more pebble in the gravel

One more rumor in the rabble.

How can He be king?

He's just a kid.

Well in no time He seen the world was knockin' on His door

Performed miracles and wonders they had never see before

Soon the Pharasees stopped laughin

The silver sun was paid

And near the end He knelt down in the garden and He prayed:

I'm just a kid

That's all I am

I'll need Your strength too see me through it

If it is Your will I'll do it

But how can I be king I'm just a kid?

Now I think about the Baby and the Man at Christmas time

Of mother's, son's and father's and children just like mine

About the power in unselfishness, love and sacrifice

The Gift that we were given and the price.

And how the news spread through Jerusalem, tonight a child is born

There are shepherds fallin' to their knees, and angels blowin' horns

I wonder how on Earth the Pharasees, could scoff and drink their wine

And say He's only Hebrew prophesy

We don't care and besides He's just a kid

That's all He is

One more pebble in the gravel

One more rumor in the ravel

And how can He be king? He's just a kid

Oh how can He be king?

He's just a kid.

Ooooh.
