THE CROSS MOVEMENT - Wisemen lyrics

[Chorus]

I'm on the road, dog

Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs

If you could see what we see

you would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be

In the presence of more than a baby boy

The Lord who can save you and save me, or

Maybe if it's still not clear

Let wise men open your eyes and take you there

[Verse One]

The sky was clear that night, right?

Cold, crisp air, stars shining bright

Remember that y'all?

But there was that one star that was shining brighter than them all

I remember that star, that‘s why I called y'all

We were getting restless while we waited

For a special child with a mom highly favored

No more singing the blues

The sky signified the coming of the King of the Jews

We'd studied the script, next step was to study the trip

Packed up, ready to dip, ready to roll

Wasn't even sweatin' the cold

Convinced of Hotness, ready the gol

Hold up, don't forget the planks to anchor the tent

And with that gold grab the myrrh and the frankencense

[Chorus]

[Verse Two]

It's been a minute but we're still steppin'

Still trekkin'

Can't wait to put our eyes on what our heart's expectin'

Can't wait to find the palace

Recline in the palace, sit back and drink wine from the chalice

You know they from out of town, right?

They probably down town in the Crown Plaza, not in Crown Heights

He probably got a long line waiting to see Him

I bet you even King Herod's waiting to see Him

I should give him a call, I know he can get me in

And if he hook it up we all - get in free then

Yo, I called Herod, he don't know where he at

But he said if we find Him we should call him right back

I don't trust that dude, I ain't callin' him back

Chill wit all that, you can see we're on the right track

What makes you say that?, cause the star's right there

Well if the star's right there then we must be here

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]

Fading in the distance

The place where all of us faced a twist deeper than the sixth sense

It wasn't what I expected to see

Someone as great as Him living lesser than me

In fact we were blown away

By a King with no bling, just a throne of hay

Even shepherds had heard of Him

Somehow they got word of Him

Wise men, herdsmen, all of us worshipin'

Anybody notice how the sheep and cows

Seem to peek and bow [down] to the sleeping child?

We went home a different way, not just geographically, but he impacted me

Never forget the day, we got to sit back

And see God's presence, a present, gift wrapped

[Chorus]
