Story of John The Baptist As Written In Luke Chapter 1-3

lyrics

(Verse 1)
This is the beginning of a story , a supernatural story
Of a man that was born to give God glory
To tell the people of izzy (Israel) , that God will be walking with thee
And make the path straight, but I gotta tell creation before the last days

There once was a man old in his age,
Wife was barren too, and they both were getting grey
They both had prayed like lord send me son
Then an angel had appear like " yo you're having one"

The Holy Spirit fills your wife, you shall name him John”
He will go before the lord and make the path straight
Prepare the way, and in the humblest of ways he will say

(Pre- Chorus)
Who I am, that I may stoop and tie the shoes
Of the one that yet to come, the messiah the promised one
Holy spirit you'll be baptized, sins freed,
But remember the one your looking for ain’t me (I am the)

(Chorus)
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness

(Verse 2)

So John went throughout all of the land
Preaching repentance with a swag of Tarzan
Camel's hair, leather belt, Locusts and honey
He Wasn't after the fame, wasn't after the money

But knew the kingdom of God was at hand better take it
So people came from difference places, to be baptized in the Jordan
for the remission, but still John was on a mission, as is written
in Isaiah, now its 700 years later

He makes the way for the maker, Tells the people to wake up
The son is coming samba, bear fruit that is worthy or all you'll hear is timber!
He knew the role he played so in the humblest of ways he will say

(Pre- Chorus)
Who I am, that I may stoop and tie the shoes
Of the one that yet to come, the messiah the promised one
Holy Spirit you'll be baptized, sins freed,
But remember the one your looking for ain’t me (I am the)

(Chorus)
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness

(Bridge)
The one who comes after me is before me
He takes away the sins so I ain;t asking for the glory
He’s the one who made the whole world masterpiece and story
And I ain’t even worthy to stoop down and kneel before thee (God)

so go and follow him
Cuz everything is vanity go ask Solomon
The one whom sent me baptizing said
“on whom the spirit falls and remains this is him who baptizes with the spirit”

(Verse 3)
In the same Days Jesus came From Galilee
To be baptized in the Jordan by John
John said this is wrong but But Jesus Said that he must
Permitted for now to fulfill all righteousness

So He was baptized in the Jordan, the blue skys started roaring
The sky cracked, and the spirit descended like a dove
A voice came from above saying "this is my beloved,
in whom I am well pleased, in whom I am well pleased,

This is pure humility, John served so willingly
Decreased to a mini me, understood since the minute he
Stepped on surface and stepped in his purpose
He Knew the role He played, so in the humblest of ways he will say

(Pre- Chorus)
Who I am, that I may stoop and tie the shoes
Of the one that yet to come, the messiah the promised one
Holy Spirit you'll be baptized, sins freed,
But remember the one your looking for aint me (I am the)

(Chorus)
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Voice of the one crying in the wilderness
Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness ,Crying in the wilderness
