Well the news spread through Jerusalem, tonight a child is born
There are shepherds falling to
their knees, and Angels blowin' horns
But in their golden halls the Pharasees
Scarfed 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 ravel
How
can he be king?
He's just a kid
Well in no time he seen the world was knockin on his
door
Full of 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 scarf 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
