Hey Zacchaeus Lyrics

Well, He was comin' down the road

Windin' through Jericho

They had everyone in town in line

Folks along the road

Made movement kind of slow

We wanted them to step aside

Make way for Jesus, make way for Jesus

Down in the crowd of all those people was Zaccheus*

Life was tough for this short man

He was despised because of sin

There was no place where he could stand

And look at Jesus

Well, now Zaccheus was short

So he climbed a sycamore tree

Just the right height to see

He could see the Lord

But he felt for sure

"Jesus wouldn't wanna look at me!

Could He save me? Am I crazy?

I've got a past that most people would say was shadyApologetiX - Hey Zacchaeus - http://motolyrics.com/apologetix/hey-zacchaeus-lyrics.html

Would He choose to forgive my sins?

Or am I going out on a limb?"

Just then the Lord looked up at him

Said, "Hey, Zaccheus!"

LEAD

So there was silence in the road

While He looked up and spoke

And the world was hanging' on the line

Jesus hollered up there, "Let's both go to supper

At your house tonight."

They said, "Jesus, don't be facetious

Don't hang around immoral people like Zaccheus!"

He said, "Baby, don't detain me!

I've gotta go, 'cause this sheep's lost

I'm gonna save him!"

Wooo Wooo Wooo Wooo (4X)

All you gotta see is... we all need saved by Jesus

Luke 19:3

He wanted to see who Jesus was, but being a short man he could not, because of the crowd.
